agree with the other posts that installing the binary version of Tomcat 
might be a good idea. That way you can be sure of where everything is.

the /etc/init.d/tomcat4.start file may be misconfigured. You might be 
better off running the catalina script directly, as you could see any 
errors right away.

Normally this would be $CATALINA_HOME/bin/catalina.sh, and it should be run 
like this to start tomcat:
$CATALINA_HOME/bin/catalina.sh start
or
$CATALINA_HOME/bin/catalina.sh run
(using the run parameter may give you more error messages)


to stop tomcat:
$CATALINA_HOME/bin/catalina.sh

You can use the actual path rather than $CATALINA_HOME, in your case this 
might be:
/var/tomcat4/bin/catalina.sh
