Rhodri,
While this does specifically address your question, you might try
downloading our software, Qilan. Qilan is designed for OS X. Our
installer includes Tomcat (v5.5.7) and does all the configuration.
Although we would like for you to try out Qilan, it is not necessary
for you to run Tomcat with your own webapps.
The download can be obtained at http://cgs.qilan.com:8080/qilan/

I've recently installed Tomcat 5.0.25 on my Mac OS X (10.4), and
have used it successfully with servlets (using Java 1.5). I am
currently trying to run a simple JSP example, but get the following
error message:
No Java compiler was found to compile the generated source for the
JSP. This can usually be solved by copying manually $JAVA_HOME/lib/
tools.jar from the JDK to the common/lib directory of the Tomcat
server, followed by a Tomcat restart.
Upon searching the web (and my OS) it appears that OS X does not
include a tools.jar file, as all classes are in the classes.jar
file. I have tried commenting out the references to the tools.jar
from the catalina.xml file and the setclasspath.sh file, and have
even tried renaming a copy of the classes file to tools.jar, and
putting it in the common/lib directory - all to no avail.
Is there a workaround for this issue? (Incidentally, I found no
references to OS X or tools.jar on the Apache site).
Thanks in advance for your help,
Rhodri
