Mike, Thanks for the help, but all the directories have a minimum of r-x, most have rwx and are owned by root. Tomcat runs as root and apache runs as apache.

For example, if DocumentRoot = /home/tomcat/your_app, then /home/tomcat needs to have execute permissions. chmod u+x /home/tomcat/your_app Does the user that tomcat runs under own the directory and files /home/tomcat/your_app? chown -R tomcat.tomcat /home/tomcat/your_app Change the above to match your installation.
