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.
