David,
I do not know if the 3rd party app has hard-coded paths. I grepped for
tomcat in the app directory and below and I see a couple of places where
it is doing a System.GetProperty("tomcat.home"), but that's about it.

Directory?
Fair enough. Are the JSPs, servlets, etc., ... all being called from
the /home/myaccount/tomcat5/webapps directory?
Here's where I'm going with this:
If resources like this properties file are being opened from the wrong
location, but other webapp resources (images, jsps, servlets, etc., ...)
are being served up from the proper location, it could be the result of
bugs in your third party webapp. Maybe it's reliant on a hard coded
path or a relative path to the current directory at the time tomcat was
started.
