I did a quick test this morning. Currently, Tomcat fails to start because of the use of -Djava.endorsed.dirs Once I remove that setting everything appears to be fine. Not I only did a quick smoke test with some of the WebSocket examples. I think we can drop the use of -Djava.endorsed.dirs by default and add something to the docs that explains how to set it up via setenv.[sh|bat] if appropriate for the JVM being used. I'll follow that up in a separate thread on the Tomcat dev list.
