Well, we have a server running, but there are a few "issues" there, there's no huge hurry, but it's got to be done decently soon. I actually had it working fine with a slightly working default conf, but as you say, it's more about that warm-fuzzy :)
Like I said before, Im not comfortable putting stuff into production unless I have some decent knowledge about how it works, and since I for once have the luxury of time, Im gonna try to use it to get somewhat familiar with Tomcat, rather than just making it work without actually knowing how or why it works. But you're right, my needs are simple.

Perhaps I've missed something in this thread, but if your need is as simple as a single (or even a couple) JSP pages, why not just copy everything in server.xml that has to do with "/examples", change that to "/your-app", restart tomcat, and call it good? For that matter, toss the JSP into the ROOT and go with that. Is it just for a warm-fuzzy that you are trying to learn every nook and cranny of tomcat to get your JSPs running? I'm not criticizing, it just seems to me that the solution is very simple. Sure, it's always good for an admin to learn as much as possible about the software running on their server, but that seems secondary to getting your pages running, at least to me. You can always implement more options later.
