[Building Sakai] Build & install 2.9 - build question

[Adams, David]

Greg,
Good questions. The Sakai deploy process still puts things in places that existed in Tomcat 5.5. But as of Tomcat 6 and now 7, the common, shared, and server directories don't exist. And eg with common/classes, if the deployer doesn't put anything into common/classes (which it doesn't by default), you'll get that warning. It's nothing to worry about, best I can tell, but you can solve the problem by either creating the directory (annoying but safe), or removing it from catalina.properties (probably okay, but it depends on whether anything ever does end up there).

Subject: [Building Sakai] Build & install 2.9 - build question

Why do the install instructions at Confluence (below) say:
    Edit conf/catalina.properties
        Add the following to the line that begins with "common.loader=..."
               ,${catalina.base}/common/classes/,${catalina.base}/common/lib/*.jar

Yet in my fresh install of tomcat  7.0.37 there is no such tomcat/common directory?
Then I get associated error from tomcat on shutdown:
       org.apache.catalina.startup.ClassLoaderFactory validateFile
      WARNING: Problem with directory
           [/usr/share/apache-tomcat-7.0.37/common/classes], exists: [false], isDirectory: [false], canRead: [false]

Is this something to worry about?
