Thank you very much for your swift and helpful responses, Steffen and Jan.
I copied the latest release to /var/lib/tomcat8/webapps/ as you suggested, and moved to the next step, ‘Deployment of Plugins’. These failed only at the last stage with ‘No such file or directory’ for intrandaStatisticPlugins.
I ignored this and tried to start the Tomcat service, which failed with journalctl -xe revealing the messages copied below.
Perhaps I should abandon this and try Goobi-to-go?
Best wishes,
Stephen
