I did an installation on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS according the document http://documentation.bonitasoft.com/ubuntu-openjdk-tomcat-postgresql-0
But when I’m trying to connect to BPM Portal (http://<your_server_hostname>:8080/bonita) I’m getting a 404 error. Question: is the Tomcat part of the manual complete. It seems that the virual directory ‘bonita’ does not exist…
You did use your server name didn’t you?
http://:8080/bonita is wrong…
.
http://myservername:8080/bonita is correct…

Yes, I did use the server name.
http://bpmserver.schelhaas.local:8080/bonita

OK, but in your post it didn’t look like it 
So if you look at your folder hierarchy do you find these:?
/opt/bonita/bonita_home-7.1.4/engine-server/work/platform
/opt/bonita/bonita_home-7.1.4/engine-client/work/bonita-client-community.properties
because that’s what it’s looking for.
If not then you must have got something wrong somewhere,

Directory and file were not mentioned in de the installation document. This is the reason they were missing. Fixed that by creating the missing folders and copying the file ‘bonita-client-community.properties’ to the required location.
After restarting the server there are still errors.

The directory and file are not supposed to be mentioned in the installation document. they are supposed to be created by the installation.
I think you must have gotten a step wrong somewhere in the installation.
For example if you search your installation for the folder
/opt/bonita/bonita_home-7.1.4/engine-server/work/platform
is there an extra /bonita/ in there for i.e.
/opt/bonita/bonita/bonita_home-7.1.4/engine-server/work/platform
Where do you find the original platform folder?
I think you might have to try the whole install again, and if you do fix it can you let us know how you did it…
