Try this you twat - it worked for me on tomcat6 last year.
If you want to join ANY project, you've got to get along with people. You seem
like an ass to work with... frustration or not :)
Apache runs on a meritocracy if you have hopes of joining the project.
Kindly,
Chris
P.S. I'm only an archiva user, not anything else to do with the project.
mkdir archiva (in the same directory as bin logs conf, i.e. tomcats top level
dir)
cp /home/cm/apache-archiva-1.3.3.war ./archiva/
add this to tomcat init script
export CATALINA_OPTS="-Dappserver.home=$CATALINA_HOME
-Dappserver.base=$CATALINA_HOME"
add this to conf/Catalina/localhost/archiva.xml
<Context path="/archiva"
docBase="${catalina.home}/archiva/apache-archiva-1.3.3.war">
<Resource name="jdbc/users" auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource"
username="archiva"
password="mju7yg"
driverClassName="org.apache.derby.jdbc.EmbeddedDriver"
url="jdbc:derby:/path/to/database/users;create=true" />

</Context>
download db-derby (10.6 used here) and put derby.jar into tomcat's lib dir
activation.jar into lib dir as well
mail.jar into lib dir as well
start tomcat
browse to host:8080/archiva
