from \Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat X.x_RSSO_TomcatX\webapps
to \Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 8.0_RSSO_Tomcat8\webapps directory.
or to \Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 9.0_RSSO_Tomcat9\webapps directory.
4. Also, copy the database driver from your tomcatX/lib directory to tomcat8/lib or tomcat9/lib directory, or from the RSSO Installer "\BMCRemedySSO\Disk1\lib" folder. - For MSSQL - copy and paste sqljdbc4-4.0.jar / mssql-jdbc-7.2.2.jre8.jar - For Oracle DB - copy and paste ojdbc*.jar - For Postgresql - copy and paste postgresql-42.2.5.jre7.jar
