Installing ReportServer on Ubuntu, some minor findings

Hello together,

I tried to install Report Server on Ubuntu 24.04.1 (WSL) based on the instruction from the following website:

https://reportserver.net/de/dokumentati … -on-ubuntu

I found the following issues:

- tomcat9 is not default for Ubuntu 24.04.1,
you have to add the correspondig repositoy via
       add-apt-repository -y -s "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ jammy main universe"

- the cp command for the following files is not correct:

     persistence.properties.example
     reportserver.properties
     logging-rs.properties

correct command (ROOT was missing):

  cp /var/lib/tomcat9/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/classes/persistence.properties.example /opt/reportserver/persistence.properties
  cp /var/lib/tomcat9/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/classes/reportserver.properties /opt/reportserver/reportserver.properties
  cp /var/lib/tomcat9/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/classes/logging-rs.properties /opt/reportserver/logging-rs.properties
