ZipException: Permission denied

[Bernd Prager <Be...@RSGSystems.com>]

While setting up a struts framework on linux (Debian) I have trouble
getting my application to work.
I get two significant error messages and I hope by solving the first
issue the second one disappears.
I use the testing packages on Debian (tomcat4 4.1.30-6 and
libstruts1.1-j 1.1-2).
 
The first error message is in catalina.log:

Now I checked the entire tomcat4 directory structure, all files are
owned by tomcat4 and readable.
Tomcat has write access to all project directories. I even checked the
/var/cache/tomcat4 dir.
I scanned the entire box for all existing jar files and confirmed
they're readable as well.
What else could cause that?

The second message is in localhost.log:

The application doesn't start of course.

Can anybody please help me here?
Thanks a lot,
