Apple OS X and Jakarta Tomcat

["Mark B. Indictor" <mb...@fiddler.com>]

I am having a problem with a new install of Tomcat 4.0.2 on OS X (10.1.3).
 
The servlet seems to startup two times, and it does not respond to HTTP
requests. As a matter of fact, no servlets in the configuration seem to
respond to HTTP requests!!!
 
The servlet successfully connects to a MSSQLServer database on a separate
Windows box via JDBC using BEA's latest WebLogic JDBC drivers. I have a
Java-based client program that communciates to the servlet via RMI, and it
works as expected, so I know the code is running and functioning to a large
degree. 
 
I've also tried to use the Apache Web Server that comes standard with OS X
10.1.3. After downloading mod_webapp.so and updating the httpd.conf file, I
got the same results as with Tomcat: 404 errors!!!
 
Does anyone have a clue what could be wrong with what I've done?!
 
Here are the configuration details:
 
 <Context path="/s2" docBase="SiteBlocks" debug="0" reloadable="false">
  <Logger className="org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger"
   prefix="SiteBlocks_Log." suffix=".txt"
   timestamp="true"/>
 </Context>
 
 
I then created the following directories:
 
$TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/SiteBlocks
$TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/SiteBlocks/WEB-INF 
$TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/SiteBlocks/WEB-INF/lib 
$TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/SiteBlocks/WEB-INF/classes
 
and the following files:
 
$TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/SiteBlocks/WEB-INF/web.xml
$TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/SiteBlocks/WEB-INF/SiteBlocksServer.properties
 
which contains the following information:
 
<!DOCTYPE web-app

    "http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd

Thanks in advance for any help.
