Eclipse: could not load the Tomcat server configuration

Starting Tomcat7 from Eclipse produced an error:
Could not load the Tomcat server configuration at /usr/share/tomcat7/conf. The configuration may be corrupt or incomplete.

Solution:

Tomcat7 split into different folders by default. Eclipse expects Tomcat to be in one folder. To resolve, we create symbolic links in Tomcat home dir.

Now Eclipse should be able to start Tomcat.
