Hi, Yeah, I'd classify that as "odd" and beyond. A 500-class error, specifically a 503, is an UnavailableException. Tomcat always logs those and their root cause, precisely because they're a dead-end as you've noticed.
The Roller installation instructions call for Tomcat and work for me: http://www.rollerweblogger.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=InstallationGuide. Try following them, starting with a clean install from scratch.
