Do not deploy multiple Atlassian applications in a single Tomcat container
Deploying multiple Atlassian applications in a single Tomcat container is not supported. We do not test this configuration and upgrading any of the applications (even for point releases) is likely to break it. There are also a number of known issues with this configuration. See this FAQ for more information.
In addition, there are practical reasons for recommending that you do not deploy multiple Atlassian applications in a single Tomcat container. Firstly, you will need to shut down Tomcat to upgrade any application and secondly, if one application crashes, the other applications running in the Tomcat container will be inaccessible.
