Hi Shaz,

I must admit that I kind of lost you on where or what you are trying to do
but here is a short explanation (on 2.5.1 I see no reason why you would
like to start working on a legacy version):
Inside the artifactory.war there is a file called artifactory.config.xml
which is the default startup configuration for artifactory. If you'll
extract the zip you can find a copy of this file under the
$ARTIFACTORY_HOME/etc folder, when dropping the war on tomcat the
ARTIFACTORY_HOME is only being created after startup.
During the startup this file is being uploaded and saved to the database
and you will see now in the etc folder two config files:
1. artifactory.config.bootstrap.xml - a copy of the config that artifactory
was started with.
2. artifactory.config.latest.xml - every time you save the config
artifactory saves a copy of it (up to 10 copies by default), you will see
in the artifactory.log that the config was saved during the startup process.
This is done so you could go back and review configurations history and
give you the option to roll back.
The next time you will restart Artifactory it will come up with the
configuration that is saved in the db. You can force Artifactory to go up
with a different configuration by placing a file in the etc folder called
artifactory.config.import.xml.  Can be done also for security,
security.import.xml.

As for the Tomcat issue, we managed to startup 2.3.0 on tomcat 6 so you
probably in a bad mixed mod from all your tests, try cleaning everything
and start from scratch.
I advice that if you are installing on linux machine, use the rpm package,
the Tomcat7 is already bundled inside.

HTH,

Eli
