Sven,
Before your give up with Tomcat, you should try Qilan
(www.qilan.com). Qilan is a web development application which
includes a fully configured version of Tomcat. Qilan even includes
simple apple scripts that start/stop Tomcat. If you want to get into
configuring Tomcat, that's fine, but you don't have to. Tomcat is a
great performer, fast, reliable and stable. I agree that it's
internals can be difficult for the user who just wants to create a
web application, but that's were Qilan comes into play. Qilan is a
Mac OS X application.

You've hit the nail on the head. For someone who comes in with a
Webstar, Webstar/SSL, WebCat, 4D, Phantom, ListStar,
PageSentry, MacAuthorize, and CGI background the TomCat experience
is quite different and requires a lot of basic assumptions to be
scrapped.
A lot of what I would have expected to be in end-user TomCat
documentation is now probably better suited for documentation in
the "using" application, like JForum. I think, correct me if I'm
wrong, that most of the TomCat documentation is out of necessity
aimed at developers rather than end users as the TomCat
functionality can not anticipate end-user issues for "using"
applications ?
Back to trying to get JForum installed, but not struggling with
TomCat.
