My openmrs-runtime.properties was in /usr/share/tomcat7/.OpenMRS , I have recreated this folder and try deploy openmrs.war but there is nothing on the folder /usr/share/tomcat7/.OpenMRS. I have also try to create the folder /var/lib/OpenMRS (as per your suggestion) and deploy openmrs.war but still the folder /var/lib/OpenMRS is empty.
