Hi Janning, we've downloaded Tomcat from the Apache website, un-tarred it and ran it using the original scripts - it works quite smooth.
Consider this solution as a workaround in case you're not able to solve the problem. I know that there have been some issues with the Debian packages in the German Debian mailinglist, but I can't recall exactly what the problems where. Therefore my suggestion: Get rid of the Debian package, write your own sweet little /etc/init.d - startup-script, use the original Tomcat-installation and have fun. If you need assistance writing your /etc/init.d/tomcat or face problems with the original startup.sh, let me know. If you really want to drill down your problem, try the following: start your script with bash -x [your_startup-script_here] and see if you find some more information: bash -x makes the output of the shell a bit more talkative.
