    Description

      When installing the tomcat and tomcat-vault RPMs, users presently have to copy the tomcat-vault jar into the tomcat lib directory. That should not be a manual step in the RPM installation. We should include a symlink to it like we do for ecj and other dependencies so that users can simply install the RPM and configure tomcat to use the vault.

          • Minor - To be worked after urgent, high, and medium priorities are resolved. This term is chosen when the severity of the issue is low, or the complexity or effort to correct it may be higher, relatively speaking. For low priority issues, known workarounds exist or are not needed due to the trivial effort needed to address the issue.
