I had what seems to be the same problem. I noticed a "copy failed" message (the install paused for a few seconds at that point.) Then got errors trying to see Tomcat home page. My problems cleared up after I re-downloaded and re-installed.
Good luck,
Martin

For the past several days, I've been trying to figure out what is causing the following error when trying to access any jsp (this is a new installation: tomcat 4.1.18, apache 2.0.44, j2sdk 1.4.1_01, win2k):
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for JSP
An error occurred at line: -1 in the jsp file: null
Generated servlet error:

I have tried several times to fix this by reinstalling tomcat, and noticed that a "copy failed" message appeared briefly in the status bar of the installer, and that this error seemed to happen as jars were being copied to $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib. The install continued, and appeared to complete succesfully, so I assumed that the installer had worked around the copy failure. Now I'm wondering if that's what has been causing my problems. Here is a list of the jars in my common/lib directory:
ant.jar
commons-collections.jar
commons-logging-api.jar
jasper-compiler.jar
jasper-runtime.jar
naming-factory.jar
naming-common.jar
naming-resources.jar
servlet.jar
Is there anything missing?
Thanks,
Derek Odegard
