Can't start tomcat in digital ocean's CentOS server?

Question

I am trying to configure a CentOs server in DigitalOcean. I have followed all those steps mentioned in their website.This is the link of various steps to configure server. DigitalOcean. I followed all but unfortunately no getting expected result. I have followed till end of step Install Systemd Unit File in this link. Is there any problem in setting JAVA_HOME? I followed answer in this link. But not getting expected result. Every time I check tomcat status , I get this

tomcat.service - Apache Tomcat Web Application Container

And in cataliina.out trace is

OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM warning: If the number of processors is expected to increase from one, then you should configure the number of parallel GC threads appropriately using -XX:ParallelGCThreads=N

Can you add the output of `journalctl -u tomcat.service` to the question? — Haxiel, Jan 20 '19 at 07:55
Thanks, but it looks like the logs are being written elsewhere, and not to the systemd journal. Can you look for the directory `/opt/tomcat/logs` in your system and see if you can find any information there? There should be a log file with the name `catalina`, which is Tomcat's standard log. — Haxiel, Jan 20 '19 at 08:32
Since the server is failing to start, that log should contain some error messages for you to check further. You can also post the logs from the last startup here, so that we can check. — Haxiel, Jan 20 '19 at 08:36

I would advise detailing you your words the problem and what you have done. The answer you are linking to does not seem particular good advice, but I might not looked at it well. Please tell us what is your java home and if you installed java. — Rui F Ribeiro, Jan 20 '19 at 09:29
@RuiFRibeiro, I am following the link https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-apache-tomcat-8-on-centos-7 to configure server. But Tomcat is not starting. And using command `ls - l /etc/alternatives/java` I am getting java home and setting at `JAVA_HOME`. But tomcat is not starting — Avijit Barua, Jan 20 '19 at 09:37
