Hi J, I installed roller on tomcat 5.5 by strictly following installation guide and it runs good. In my install, roller-custom.properties was put into tomcat/common/classes folder.
In your installation, I noticed that step 5, you put roller-custom.properties to tomcat/lib, and that could be the root cause for the fail.
