Do you have the manager application installed on Tomcat? (http://localhost:8080/manager/html)
If so, what does it say about the status of the DSpace application? Have you checked the Tomcat log files? Is Tomcat running under a security manager? (I'm not sure how this is / would be configured under Fedora). If it is, the configuration manager probably won't get loaded, and the application will fail to initialise correctly.
