I am running Ubuntu 8.04 and already have Tomcat 5.5 installed, but I am told

install process of Tomcat 6, and it doesn't seem to overwrite Tomcat 5.5 - am I
misunderstanding something or leaving a step out?
What do you mean by "the regular install process of Tomcat 6" ?
apt-get install tomcat6
or something like that ?
If yes, you are using the Ubuntu prepackaged version of tomcat 6.x (?),
and it probably install it alongside tomcat 5.5, not on top of it.
It probably also does not start it, because the ports of this new tomcat
conflict with the ones of tomcat 5.5 (if that one is started already).
It is not necessarily a bad idea to use the official package
installation tools for your platform to install Tomcat (makes life a bit
easier usually if all you want is using it together with other packaged
products), but most people on this list have no idea what these packages
do, or how and where they install bits and pieces of Tomcat.
You would get better help for that on a Ubuntu help list.
