How can i install tomcat server on my salt-minion

[Madhu Nali]

I tried to install apache tomcat on my salt-minion like below

vi /srv/salt/tomcat.sls

tomcat:

archive:
    - extracted
    - name: /opt/
    - source: http://tomcat.apache.org/download-70.cgi/apache-tomcat-7.0.47.tar.gz
    - source_hash: md5=efbae77efad579b655ae175754cad3df
    - archive_format: tar
    - tar_options: z
    - if_missing: /opt/apache-tomcat-7.0.47

Then i executed command salt-call state.sls tomcat then i am getting like below 

ubuntu:
----------
          ID: tomcat
    Function: archive.extracted
        Name: /opt/
      Result: False
     Comment: File sum set for file /var/cache/salt/minion/_opt_apache-tomcat-7.0.47.tar of efbae77efad579b655ae175754cad3dd does not match real sum of dbe64e2e9c509f949539b41447a875e5
     Changes:   
              ----------
              diff:
                  New file

Summary
------------
Succeeded: 0
Failed:    1

I don't know whether the code is correct or not 

Can any one suggest me perfect code to install tomcat on salt-minion

Your state looks fine.

When I call the URL above I got a website, not a file. So Salt is
probably correct saying that the checksum doesn't match.

A proper download URL for Tomcat is:
http://apache.mirror.digionline.de/tomcat/tomcat-7/v7.0.53/bin/apache-tomcat-7.0.53.tar.gz

Please notice that this is a newer version, the md5-hash is
7062e134b4390e2ce6b54081aab26e3c.

Thanks for your reply, I tried with the details sent by you still unable to install tomcat getting like

local:

----------

          ID: tomcat

    Function: archive.extracted

        Name: /opt/

      Result: False

     Comment: Source hash file 7062e134b4390e2ce6b54081aab26e3c contains an invalid hash format, it must be in the format <hash type>=<hash>

You can get the MD5 hash of a file by running 'md5sum filename'

It's the hash-value of the downloaded file. It's used by salt to
determine if the download is intact. You can get the hash-value either
from the tomcat project website, or you can download the file manually
and run "md5sum" on the downloaded file (but make sure the download is
intact first).
