SECORE error with userdb collection not found

[Bang Pham Huu]

SECORE error with userdb collection not found when running def.war in Tomcat with java_server=embedded

Normally, when java_server=embedded, SECORE is supposed to run as a standalone server with java -jar def.war.

However, if start def.war as an external application with Tomcat and with this configuration, SECORE could not start with these errors

/usr/share/tomcat7/.basex could not be written.
  INFO [03:01:22] IOUtil@147: BaseX will create secoredb from the input gml resource folder '/opt/rasdaman/share/rasdaman/war/secoredb'.
  WARN [03:01:22] IOUtil@151: Failed creating database directory: /opt/rasdaman/share/rasdaman/war/secoredb
  WARN [03:01:22] BaseX@89: Default secore database directory, please consider updating DBPATH in .basex: /usr/share/tomcat7/BaseXData

as it tried to create secoredb outside of tomcat7/webapps folder and does not have permission to do it.

So, it should check this case as an error from user's behavior then throw a good error message, instead of trying to create all the collections and later it stops with error "collection not found".
