I ran brew install tomcat to install tomcat 8.

Now I need to put my .war file in CATALINA_BASE/webapps

I cannot find that directory anywhere on my computer. How can I locate this folder so I can put my .war in there?

use following command

$catalina -h

it will show the directories you need, alternatively you can upload war file using tomcat manager's web interface
