Fails to start, backtrace included

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Run ./webgoat.sh from the standard edition as normal user (not sudo) in Linux
2. That's it.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I expect the tomcat server to start, but instead, 404 and I see the following.

-> % ./webgoat.sh start8080

I forgot to tell that I am using a release candidate, not a stable version. I 
saw no link to download one.

WebGoat-OWASP_Standard-5.3_RC1.7z

Fixed in 5.4 - Ubuntu now has a download, unzip, click to run version.

Based on your trace, I do not know what the exact issue was.  Based on the 
number of Ubuntu installation emails I get, there is now an easier to use 
out-of-box solution
