Unfortunately I have followed all the instructions to the letter and things are not well.
I can get my whole config to work but I can't get the perks I was really looking forward to having. 1. I have to manually unzip .war files into the webapps directory 2. I can't have webapps work directly from the unpacked war files. Ah well, I'll plod along the inconvenient way. It must at this stage be a bug in the porting of Tomcat to OpenVMS as I cannot see any config that works.
