Does your data bag contain tomcat too?

  "type": {
    "my_app": [   <— with your app name, of course
      "java_webapp",
      "tomcat"
    ]
  },

If so, you should also have a ROOT.xml file in your Tomcat context
directory, and it should contain the name of your war file.

But since you say Tomcat was not installed, I supposed you don't. Try with 
that.
