I downloaded sakai 2.7 binary as follows
wget http://source.sakaiproject.org/release/2.7.1/artifacts/sakai-bin-2.7.1.tgz
and Tomcat 5.5 from here
http://tomcat.apache.org/download-55.cgi
and in folder
apache-tomcat-5.5.31
based on instructions here
http://confluence.sakaiproject.org/display/DOC/Install+Guide+-+Binary+Install+%282.7%29
I verified following things
1) java -version
java version "1.6.0_20"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_20-b02)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 16.3-b01, mixed mode)

2) echo $JAVA_HOME
/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.20

3)echo $PATH
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.20/bin:/opt/apache-tomcat-5.5.31/bin

4) In Tomcat/bin there I created a file setenv.sh and it has following contents

export JAVA_OPTS='-server -Xms512m -Xmx1024m -XX:PermSize=128m
-XX:MaxPermSize=512m -XX:NewSize=192m -XX:MaxNewSize=384m
-Djava.awt.headless=true -Dhttp.agent=Sakai
-Dorg.apache.jasper.compiler.Parser.STRICT_QUOTE_ESCAPING=false
-Dsun.lang.ClassLoader.allowArraySyntax=true
-Dsun.lang.ClassLoader.allowArraySyntax=true
-Dorg.apache.jasper.compiler.Parser.STRICT_QUOTE_ESCAPING=false
-Dhttp.agent=Sakai'



5) CATALINA_HOME is
/opt/apache-tomcat-5.5.31

6) Created a folder named sakai in CATALINA_HOME and copied the file
https://source.sakaiproject.org/svn/config/branches/sakai-2.7.x/configuration/bundles/src/bundle/org/sakaiproject/config/bundle/default.sakai.properties
into it with name sakai.properties

7) After this the binary I had downloaded was extracted in
CATALINA_HOME/webapps/sakai-bin

Now what do I need to do to be able to start sakai ?
