I confess, apache was running. I shut it down and restarted. No change in
behavior either for examples or my wiki program.
I went in to my .login and removed CLASSPATH and CATALINA_HOME.
JAVA_HOME is set to /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Home
Looking at another post written by Martin Jacobson to a different user, I
changed JAVA_HOME to /usr
No change.
Changing debug to 99 as suggested by Martin Jacobson in a message to me
today shows that booting examples is failing with "Exception starting
filter Set Character Encoding" with a ClassNotFoundException at
WebappClassLoader.java line:1406
Loading the wiki program still fails precisely where I throw a
RuntimeException because the database returned the SQLException about
"Server configuration denies access..."

I have the same simple <Context assignment that has run fine under wintel
and linux. It sits just above the examples <Context declaration and just
below the manager <Context declaration.
It looks like this:
<Context path="/wiki" docBase="wiki"
reloadable="true" debug="99" trusted="false >

the user 'mysql' was created in the NetInfo Manager by cloning another user
per instructions in an OnJava article on setting up mysql securely. As
part of the debugging process, I created the new user 'wiki' in the
preferences User panel.
If there is one single uniform resource that explains all of this without
requirement of an enormous amount of a priori tacit knowledge, perhaps one
just for OS X, I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

found it. It's in /etc just as you said. Is there any simple way to browse
these Unix directories from Aqua (like there is with linux?)

Ok. It's going to take me a few hours to digest all this.
Many thanks again to all who have responded to my problem (ignorance?)
