tomcat6

Manages tomcat6 in /etc/tomcat6. This has defined types for tomcat-users.xml’s roles and users, context.xml parameters, and most-used settings in server.xml. Also configures JAVA_OPTS and CATALINA_OPTS in tomcat6.conf. This does NOT restart Tomcat on config file changes.

This is provided as-is, YMMV.

$ajpRedirectPort    = 8443,
$ajpMaxThreads      = 150,
$ajpMinSpareThreads = 25,
$ajpMaxSpareThreads = 50

Enable debug:

tomcat6::conf { ‘config’ : debugEnable => true, debugPort => 9666, }

Full list of tomcat6::conf parameters currently recognized, with their default values:

$debugEnable    = false,

$jmxEnable      = false,
$jmxPort        = 8666,

$memoryMin      = 128,
$memoryMax      = 1024,
$memoryPermGen  = 256,

$connectTimeout = 30,
