It seems like the tomcat process cannot connect to the window server. I have noticed that when I start (or stop) tomcat on my MacBook there is some interaction with the window server on my mac (i.e., the finder process). I have no idea why this happens but I think it is java that tries to connect to the window server. Are you sitting directly in the machine you try to run tomcat on? If you ssh into the machine you may be unable to connect to the window server since you must own the window server process. Try to log in directly to the mac server and start the services from a terminal. You may see some windows flash by during the start up phase. This experiment would be interesting. On my machine I allow Remote login (under the Sharing pane in System preferences) ... maybe that option resolves something. Can you connect to the tomcat server at all? As Nicklas points out, try connecting to http://hostname:8080 and you should see a Tomcat welcome page. Also, the tomcat server user should own the work directory hierarchy. On my machine this user is 'www'. I have a running BASE 3.2.3 server with Tomcat 6.0.35 and PostgreSQL 9.3.0. Non-Apple software I almost always install Macports packages (tomcat and Postgresql). I run on Mac OSX 10.7.5 non-server version. I think your issues are symptoms of a tomcat/java/mac window server clash.
