I currently maintain the tomcat9 package externally, and I have users who use it for their customers so it=E2=80=99s used in production, with sysvinit instead of systemd, even. The packages are here: http://www.mirbsd.org/~tg/Debs/dists/bookworm/wtf/Pkgs/tomcat9/ Don=E2=80=99t just install them from there, though, that would not be secured. Ideally, you=E2=80=99d use the Debian package =E2=80=9Cextrepo= =E2=80=9D to enable the =E2=80=9Cwtf-lts=E2=80=9D repository, then pin it so that onl= y the packages tomcat9{,-admin,-common,-docs,-examples,-user} and libtomcat9-{,embed-}java are considered from that repo. Alternatively, http://www.mirbsd.org/~tg/Debs/debidx.htm contains links to manual installation instructions, but you might still want to consider pinning as the repo contains other packages as well. Full disclosure, while I=E2=80=99m a Debian Developer and team member, Emmanuel has veto=E2=80=99d the changes to the tomcat9 package in the past (mostly on the grounds of using adduser=E2=80=A6 *sigh*). I also haven=E2=80=99t tested installing it together with tomcat10, and I personally don=E2=80=99t test on bookworm (but others do), only on bullseye and sometimes buster. > because the javax.* to jakarta.* packages problem Upstream Tomcat says they can convert that automatically, but I wouldn=E2=80=99t rely on just that because from experience I know that upgrading the Tomcat version is always a breaking change that needs changes to all applications. bye, //mirabilos --=20 Infrastrukturexperte =E2=80=A2 Qvest Digital AG Am Dickobskreuz 10, D-53121 Bonn =E2=80=A2 https://www.qvest-digital.com/ Telephon +49 228 54881-393 =E2=80=A2 Fax: +49 228 54881-235 HRB AG Bonn 18196 =E2=80=A2 USt-ID (VAT): DE274355441 Vorstand: Dr. Stefan Barth, Kai Ebenrett, Boris Esser, Alexander Steeg Vorsitzender Aufsichtsrat: Peter N=C3=B6then
