I deleted a Tomcat Webapp without starting and stopping the server,
and now when I try to start tomcat again, it gives me an error:

* Starting Tomcat servlet engine tomcat7
touch: cannot touch `/var/lib/tomcat7/logs/catalina.out': No such file or directory
chown: cannot access `/var/lib/tomcat7/logs/catalina.out': No such file or directory

How can I fix this?

EDIT: no my directory var/lib/tomcat7/log is not there anymore what do I do?
