jakarta-tomcatX: different behaviour between port and package

[Angelo Turetta]

In fact you have exactly reproduced the problem !!

Try to connect a browser to port 8180 in this situation, and you will see
exactly nothing (just a hung connection).

If you look in your /usr/local/jakarta-tomcat5.0/logs/stdout.log you'll see
the error I was speaking of.

The conf directory (as well as its parent and all siblings) must be owned by
www:www (as correctly happens when you run 'make install' from the port), or
otherwise the boot process of tomcat5 will not complete (when the server is
running fine, you should see two sockets listening on ports 8005 and 8009
beside the 8180 you noticed).

On the other hand tomcat4, in the same situation you have reproduced, will
not start at all, and its JVM will exit after few seconds.

Thanks for help.

Angelo.
