Well done Bill,
I use last stable 2.6.11 from kernel.org compiled as the debian way
(initrd and all as module)
and nowI add the line
modprobe capability
before launching jsvc, in my tomcat init script
and wait now for the patch to drop the line
It's ok
Thanks a lot Bill
Georges

And the problem was...
first I try to start tomcat with
-user www-data
-Djava.io.tmpdir=/tmp
and after as root with only
-Djava.io.tmpdir=/tmp
the problem was the write permissions on the sessions files in /tmp

Do you call jsvc as root?
A long time ago, there was a bug that would cause jsvc to fail unless
called as root. IIRC "set_caps()" is the function that calls
setuid()/setgid(). Those calls require root privs, so they would fail;
and in turn, the whole program bailed out.
(The other option would have been for jsvc to see whether the requested
and calling user were the same.)

Try "modprobe capability". I think there is also a bug filed concerning
this problem.
Kind regards,
