Eclipse uses installed tomcat, but create in fact it's own user instance, e.g. it creates separate server.xml, catalina.policy, catalina.properties, context.xml, tomcat-users.xml and web.xml configuration files. So, when configure installed runtime, it can be pointed to system installation (unpacked zip). There are also can be system configuration, but in Eclipse it might be redefined, so it can use another port, another polices and so on. One condition it requires a "valid" tomcat installation. When creating server runtime in eclipse, it requires bootstrap.jar in bin. When deploying application it requires catalina.policy file which used as initial catalina.policy for user installation. Now I do as you adviced: create my tomcat user instance, link bootstrap.jar and copy catalina.policy. It works. But I want to do less work and to work my user instance out of the box in Eclipse.
