Here is what I did on Linux Box.
I downloaded apache-tomcat-8.0.24.tar.gz to /tmp and untared it
Then I ran this:
/bin/cp /tmp/apache-tomcat-8.0.24/lib/* /opt/lucee/tomcat/lib/
/bin/cp /tmp/apache-tomcat-8.0.24/bin/*.jar /opt/lucee/tomcat/bin/
Note that I only copied the jars, no .bat or .sh files!
Then I commented out this line in /opt/lucee/tomcat/conf/server.xml
<Listener className="org.apache.catalina.core.JasperListener" />
Everything works fine!
