For Tomcat 3.3, I'm not sure why the simple installation isn't working. Unfortunately there are some types of configuration errors that silently cause problems. For example, if the modules.xml isn't found, Tomcat 3.3 still comes up without reporting any errors but won't function because it ignored most of the server.xml file. However, in this case you don't see the same log output as a properly functioning Tomcat.
Is Tomcat 3.3's log output the same between the installations on server1 and server2? Add a path="<file>" setting to the "tc_log" in server.xml if you want to capture this log in a file, or redirect stderr on the startup command.
