OS, you are also running some kind of UNIX-like environment on top of
it). You might even want to check MD5 digest or something similar on

EBCDIC can certainly be confusing things, here.

What AS/400 unzip software?

When we unzip the Tomcat zip file on a system, we use JAR, in a QSHELL session. And likewise, JAR tvm <jarname>.jar shows what appear to be a good bin/bootstrap.jar, a good bin/tomcat-juli.jar, and a good lib/catalina.jar

Now, KEYTOOL is a worthless mess on AS/400s, but I've never seen anything like this happen from using JAR on AS/400s.

James, I have always deployed Tomcat on IBM i by mapping a network drive to the IFS and then unzipping to the mapped drive. It is slow but it hasn't ever ended up causing issues. Also, are you sure that Java 6 on this box is current with PTF's and that the profile this is running under is picking up the correct JVM version when it runs?

My money is on a J9 JVM PTF but an issue with permissions or JVM version could be a possibility......
