Environment

iManager 3.1.1

Situation

Typing  /etc/init.d/novell-tomcat8 restart results in:
-bash: /etc/init.d/novell-tomcat8: No such file or directory

After upgrading iManager using the 3.1.1 patch Tomcat can no longer be be restarted via the command:
/etc/init.d/novell-tomcat8 restart.  This symbolic link has been removed.

Resolution

To re-create the symbolic link type the following from the command line:

ln -s /etc/opt/novell/tomcat8/init.d/tomcat8 /etc/init.d/novell-tomcat8
chown -R novlwww:novlwww /etc/init.d/novell-tomcat8


This has been reported to Engineering.  It is hoped this will be resolved in the next update.
