Well, I'm up and running. My problem was, not surprisingly, a classpath
error (or errors). One thing that helped was to empty my classpath before
starting Tomcat. After that, I had to move some jar files from the web app
/lib directory to Tomcat's /lib directory. I don't know exactly what worked
or why, but I've cleared one hurdle.
Thanks for everyone's suggestions,
Kevin
