Do you get any errors on the javac?  Did you get any errors from javac when you 
used it without the -cp arguments?  (If you didn't, then something is seriously 
broken in javac, since it wouldn't know how to resolve references to the 
javax.servlet package.)

Does javac actually produce anything useful on your Mac?

You must have one or the other in order to run Tomcat from the scripts - unless 
your installation has modified the standard scripts.  The value of JAVA_HOME 
should be the path of the directory in which a JDK is installed, and JRE_HOME 
is the path to the JRE, if you're not using a JDK.

How are you starting Tomcat?  If it's from within an IDE, that may be masking a 
multitude of sins.
