instructions, when I executed ant download, the following erro occur

while executing this line:

Why are you building from source?

Just use the binary.

OK... so what does the compiler error output say?

Taking a step back, why are you compiling from source rather than downloading a binary?  Tomcat is pure Java, so provided you're running a decent Java virtual machine (the Sun one - *don't* use gcj to run Tomcat) the binary should work on your platform.
