As others have pointed out, a view of the tomcat log should give some indication of what is going on. If it is just a working implementation you are looking for so that people can practice on their laptops then by far the easiest deployment option is to use the dhis2-live setup which is available on dhis2.org website. It is designed so that you just need to unzip and go. Because it uses an embedded web and database server there is no tomcat/mysql/postgres setup to be done. It is also relatively easy to reconfigure this running setup to use a 'real' database like mysql or postgres. If you are looking at more of a production setup then you need to make some longer term decisions regarding platform stack. I would recommend that the national setup which is likely to be most robust (and link you with many others on a similar stack) is to run with tomcat+postgres+ubuntu linux server. There are places also running mysql on a windows 2003 platform (notably India) but I would not really recommend it. Clearly these sort of decisions will also depend on the hosting environment, available support skills etc. and would be something which might need to be planned with the IT support department (such that it might be). Dorothy Gordon, Edem Kossi and others would be able to link you up with good ubuntu server support skills if necessary. But production deployment is probably still a few steps away from where you are currently. As I say, I would suggest you try to get dhis2-live to run first - then phase 2 would be to customize the hibernate.properties to link it to a postgres database.
