Dear,

Read your documentation, from which method you install , so go in docs and got ur point,
if u install through rpm , so simple rpm -e tomcat*.

Copy below script into /etc/init.d/tomcat

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash
#
# tomcat        
#
# chkconfig: 
# description: 	Start up the Tomcat servlet engine.

# Source function library.
. /etc/init.d/functions


RETVAL=$?
CATALINA_HOME="/opt/tomcat"

case "$1" in
 start)
        if [ -f $CATALINA_HOME/bin/startup.sh ];
          then
	    echo $"Starting Tomcat"
            /bin/su tomcat $CATALINA_HOME/bin/startup.sh
        fi
	;;
 stop)
        if [ -f $CATALINA_HOME/bin/shutdown.sh ];
          then
	    echo $"Stopping Tomcat"
            /bin/su tomcat $CATALINA_HOME/bin/shutdown.sh
        fi
 	;;
 *)
 	echo $"Usage: $0 {start|stop}"
	exit 1
	;;
esac

exit $RETVAL

# chmod +x /etc/init.d/tomcat
# chkconfig --level 3,5 tomcat on
# /etc/init.d/tomcat start
