Hi there !
There’s an extra space in the code for your test page : “< %=" should be "<%="
I spent two hours looking for the reason why i couldn't get this "simple" page working !

Thanks for this great tutorial by the way !

Thanks for the tutorial!

One thing is missing which is vital for production use: in your configuration tomcat runs with superusercredentials.

First this is unnessesary hence tomcat runs by default on a unprevileged port 8080.

Secondly every application on the tomcat instance will have full rights on your machine. This means every security issue on a single application can cause the full compromise of your machine!

Please consider using something like

su tomcat /opt/tomcat/bin/startup.sh

where tomcat is a nonprivileged user.
