I had similar problems. tomcat doesn't change his cwd to something
intelligent. Instead it stays where it is started (/etc/init.d in your
case).
My solution was to change the tomcat-starting script in /etc/init.d:
I simply make an 'cd /to/where/tomcats/cwd/should/be' before starting
tomcat.
You know what I mean?
