Oh, I don't know how to thank you!!! That's it! It finally works.... Now should we be using port 80 and running as root or should we better use port redirection: /etc/sysconfig/ipchains -I input --proto TCP --dport 80 -j REDIRECT 8080 -I input --proto TCP --dport 443 -j REDIRECT 8443
Thanks for your help.

Shut down the first tomcat properly and completely. Then you'll be able to start on port 80 (and 8005 -- a server shutdown port is always required in addition to the connector port).
