That's why you are getting "connection refused". Tomcat isn't even starting.
Can you post the entire contents of catalina.out for a full startup attempt, instead of just the error message? It might help in debugging if we can see exactly when in the sequence this error is thrown. Just null out catalina.out, then try and start Tomcat again. Also, how did you do the installs for Tomcat and Apache? RPM? Source? Binary? Do you have zip/unzip or gzip/gunzip on your system? The error message is calling a native method.
