run the following command it will give you installation path

whereis httpd

if it's there then you can start apache server using

/etc/init.d/httpd start

then check your localhost using browser..for apache welcome page.

Whether: sudo yum list | grep -i tomcat
Where: /usr/share/tomcat5

Thank you Lakshmipathi and Rubberman

This is worked but it is not usefull for me

i have to check whether tomcat is installed or not to build a rpm(Requires section of .spec file). so the needed command will work like if condition.
Example:
Requires /usr/bin/expect
in this rpm if expect is installed then we can installed the rpm.If it is not installed we cannot install the rpm till we install the expect package .

Like that i want to install a rpm if tomcat is installed . let me out for doing this [command also need for finding installed path of tomcat ].




Thanks
