This is a very basic idea, but it might help: The user running Tomcat will need to be able to write to the directories in which Fedora's low-level stores are housed, so have you tried putting both fedora-user and tomcat-user into a common group and giving that group appropriate permissions on those directories?
Or are your permissions problems of a different nature? --- A.
