If you want to use the 64 bit JDK there's no other option. First
download and extract the a 50MB file and then do the same for a 5MB one
that adds the things necessary for the 64 bit stuff.
But in this case you're probably right. It's a better idea to get ANY
version of Java working and then go into doing something more.
As for the environment variables it depends on your needs. I have a nice
time with my modified catalina.sh and only one SSH console to control
more than one instance of tomcat. After all they must have at least a
different CATALINA_BASE.
But again, your mileage may vary =)

Be sure to extract the 32bit version of your JDK or JRE first... and
then install the 64bit patch. Otherwise it wont work.
Do you really need to do this ?
It works fine withonly downloading the right version of JDK from
java.sun.com
In your place I'd define CATALINA_HOME and JAVA_HOME inside
catalina.sh to avoind using environment variables and to escape that
feeling that you may mess up your OS Java installation.
To me it is not a good idea at all to modify the catalina.sh
Environment variable are used to configure your environment, so use
it. I understood that java compiler does not even run. The problem
seems to come from java installation. Tomcat will not run without a
valid jdk.
First you should try to make javac compiling, then you will be able to
investigate why tomcat is not working
