Confirmed this is still an issue with 14.04 and tomcat7-user
After installing tomcat7-user, those 3 folders are both not in Catalina_home, nor catalina_base.
/usr/share/tomcat7/
/var/lib/tomcat7/
Nor do these three folders exist inside a tomcat user instance folder. So the solutions suggested here of making symlinks wouldn't fix it in that case, as they don't exist.
