To the list (my new best friends;-): I finally got my (very simple) app up and working under the Debian package mechanism, but was having problems with the ajp13 connector. On someone's advice, I reinstalled using a manual installation (i. e., I used the Linux binary, but unpacked and installed by hand as opposed to using Debian's apt-get mechanism). Now, nothing works again. I'm using the same paths and descriptors as in the Debian installation, adjusted for having installed tomcat in /usr/local instead of /usr/share.

The only difference I can see is the old installation (I think) had the ROOT subdirectory in a different place. Two questions: What's wrong here, and can someone help me with this immediate problem? Is there some definitive guide to how the hell you're supposed to organize a directory structure with multiple applications?
