Its already a third time when I have to re-deploy Tomcat due to application, environment or even Tomcat issues.
Current system/situation:
- Centos 6.5
- Running Tomcat6, Tomcat7 (7.0.37). Integrated
- Difi Oxalis cant run in the same 'house' with Difi XML validator
- Difi Oxalis AS2 has mime issues running Tomcat 7.0.37-7.0.40
- Java available: 1.6, 1.7 (both JDK's and JRE's). Ref "update-alternatives --config java"
Quick cheat-sheet on how to re-deply Tomcat7 (7.0.55) with Oxalis config:
# cd /opt/
# wget http://apache.mirror.vu.lt/apache/tomcat/tomcat-7/v7.0.55/bin/apache-tomcat-7.0.55.tar.gz
# tar -xvf apache-tomcat-7.0.55.tar.gz
# mv apache-tomcat-7.0.55 tomcat7
# cd tomcat7
# export TOMCAT_HOME=/opt/tomcat7
# export CATALINA_HOME=/opt/tomcat7
# ant -Dtomcat.home=$TOMCAT_HOME -f /root/metro/metro-on-tomcat.xml install
# nano /opt/tomcat7/tomcat-users.xml
<user username="manager" password="******" roles="manager"/>
# nano /opt/tomcat7/web.xml
-- comment out all the welcome lines. cocoon needs this

Some explanations of the cheat-sheet:
- Tomcat7 was deployed as current stable Centos compatible version (7.0.37)
- wget url - download using preferred server
- Metro requirement - ref to Oxalis installation description, its just one .jar file stored in endorsed dir, it might as well be just copied from your old Tomcat installation
- passwords in '*******' - dont forget to replace with your passwords
- cocoon installation is optional
- please note that Tomcat 7.0.55 cant locate your .keystore and you have to define its path manually using tags "keystoreFile" and "keyAlias" which where not needed before
- sslEnabledProtocols is another fix related to SSLv2 beeing disabled in Java7 and OpenSSL 1.0.0+
- ssl_tomcat folder is optional
