Oracle 9iAS does use a modified version of Orion. I have tried to use the application manager servlet (and I have used it for other apps with no problem) but cannot get the installation to function. I have also manually changed the server.xml file which is the same file altered by the application manager. The problem is in the web.xml file that contains references to the dbforms controller. If I comment out the controller sections from the web.xml file, I can at least access the root url of the web site. With these sections in, I get a 404 error even when attempting to access an html page in the directory. But, I receive no errors from TomCat even though something in the web.xml file controller references is keeping the site from loading.

Anyway, with Tomcat4.x, you must use its application manager servlet to install your web apps. It's not sufficient to move them into the $CATALINA_HOME/webapps directory.
