Resolution
- Launch Yast2 and select Software Management
- In the search field, type tomcat
- Right-click novell-web-config and select update
- Click accept to apply changes and install the update
Note: The novell-web-config version should be at least 2.4.1-0.5.18.1, if not properly registered, the update
may not show. If this is the case, please register OES and add the update channel. - Launch a terminal and type rcnovell-tomcat6 restart
Cause
GroupWise 2014 updates Tomcat6, but not the Novell-Tomcat6 component causing it to stop working if updates have not been ran.
