I have a cookbook that installs Tomcat7, sets up an `/etc/init.d` service to start, stop, or restart Tomcat, and provides a LWRP to deploy applications to the instance from our Artifactory setup.

It all works with one caveat: Tomcat gets restarted every time the chef-client daemon runs, or every 15 minutes in this case.

Here is the `default` recipe, which installs Tomcat and sets up the service:

# Create a tomcat user
user node['tomcat']['tomcat_user'] do
 comment 'tomcat user'
 system true
