Resolution
RHEL optional sub-channel or repository provides the webapps packages.
To install the package with yum, you need to subscribe the system to the channel or repository.
- For system registered to RHN Classic or Red Hat Satellite 5, subscribe the system profile to the sub-channel with the steps in How do I subscribe to the Optional or Supplementary channels in RHN Classic or RHN Satellite? or with the following commands:
[Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server]
# rhn-channel -a -c rhel-`uname -i`-server-optional-6 -u <Your RHN ID> -p <Your Password>
[Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation]
# rhn-channel -a -c rhel-`uname -i`-workstation-optional-6 -u <Your RHN ID> -p <Your Password>
- For systems registered via subscription-manager, enable the Optional repository with the step in How to access Optional and Supplementary channels, and -devel packages using Red Hat Subscription Manager (RHSM)?. for example:
[Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server]
# yum-config-manager --enable rhel-6-server-optional-rpms
[Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation]
# yum-config-manager --enable rhel-6-workstation-optional-rpms
After adding the channel or repository, install the packages:
# yum install tomcat6-webapps tomcat6-admin-webapps
