I had not apparently installed jdk1.1-dev on that machine, so /etc/init.d/tomcat was silently failing when it looked for java to start the tomcat engine.
I hope this helps someone else!
I do notice that :8081 does not bring up index.html for tomcat (as it did on my other machine),
but just "directory listing for /".

I did a clean new install of your 3.2 tomcat, and mod_jk; thanks.
I also have a version that I upgraded form 3.1 on an adjacent (potato) box. The first doesn't work, the later does, and I can't find out the differences to fix #1.
I have these problems on ox #1 (woody, with updates from Potato);
When I run Apache; it works. But no servlets or JSP work, and port :8081 doesn't work (all of this works on #2).
All files in /etc/tomcat and /etc/apache are identical on both systems.
Details;
1) I don't have the ..tomcat/bin/startup.sh
-- isn't this a standard part of tomcat?
2) I had a 0 length mod_jk.conf_auto
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Dec 12 16:41 mod_jk.conf-auto
So, I copied one from another machine (#2).
3) I had no files in /var/lib/tomcat/conf, which is where several /usr/share/tomcat/conf links point to, specifically I am missing:
iis_redirect.reg-auto
obj.conf-auto
tomcat-apache.conf
uriworkermap.properties-auto
web.xml
So, I copied these from another machine (#2).
3) I have no logs in /var/log/tomcat.
On system #2, there are a lot of logs there, but I wonder if they are old (3.1 version?)
jasper.log, tomcat.log, servlet.log
on the working system (#2):
omega:/var/log/tomcat# zcat stdout.log.1.gz

Any hints?
I completely started clean with a new install on my first machine above, so hoped it would all work easily!
Thanks for any pointers.
