unable to deploy war file in tomcat9 using jenkins - jenkins

Question

I am trying to deploy war file in tomcat but unable to do so. I am using tomcat9. I have configure tomcat9 and its up and active on port 9090 as I am using port 8080 for jenkins. I am running jenkins and tomcat9 in my local Ubuntu 20.04. When I run my jenkins job, I am getting the below logs:

I fixed it. My webapps directory was empty. So, I installed tomcat9-admin and reinstalled tomcat9 by using the command sudo apt install tomcat9 tomcat9-admin. Then I restarted the tomcat service using sudo service tomcat9 restart. Here are my logs in jenkins:
