Thanks. Sorry to continue with the dumb questions,
but that said,:
- I see that I don't have the ability to run Tomcat as myself, having
installed it as root and not changed any permissions. I spose that most
people create a new, local, user "xwiki" or "tomcat_user", and
install and
run the software as that user?
- Do most people run Tomcat or something else?
- Do most people install Xwiki from WAR or using the standalone?
I don't think your question is a dumb question but, in fact, it is not a
single question! I do think you are doing a mega-mix!
People run a lot of different combination of OS, application server, web
server and databases. Our production servers run older versions than your,
but I do think our installation could be an example. Here you have some
links that were usefull for me more than two years ago...

I think I remember last two comments dated on 2014/08/04 09:22 and 2014/11/29
08:56 were the ones leading us to the configuration of our current Tomcat
installation running two XWiki instances: a plain old XWiki Enterprise
2.4.30451 and a newer XWiki Enterprise 7.3 one.
I'm now solving several issues with a brand new XWiki 9.2.2 on Tomcat
9.0.0.M17 and MySQL; in this case on a Mac OS X box.
That's why I'm really interested in understanding your issue!
Please, don't forget to read more than ten times the XWiki pages related
with the installation on the container you have choosen and make comments
and send question about their contents!
Thinkin I should start over ..
Cheers!

Thanks!
- In fact I installed Tomcat and xwiki as root. I guess someone else
should own
the files?
- I would like to run tomcat/xwiki on port 80.
Do I need to run as root
to do that? Do I need to set up some privsep user such
that it starts as
root and then SU's to a lesser user, like ssh does?
It's indeed possible Tomcat require root to use port 80. At least on
Linux. Usually what most people do is put Apache on Nginx in front of
Tomcat on port 80 and keep Tomcat on port 8080.
Thx again.
Doug
