I did a clean new install of your 3.2 tomcat, and mod_jk; thanks.

I find that I still have some problems;
1) I don't have the ..tomcat/bin/startup.sh

2) I had a 0 length mod_jk.conf_auto
 
-rw-r--r--    1
root    
root            0
Dec 12 16:41 mod_jk.conf-auto

So, I copied one from another machine.

3) I had no files in /var/lib/tomcat/conf, which is where several
/usr/share/tomcat/conf links point to, specifically I am missing:
  iis_redirect.reg-auto
  obj.conf-auto
  tomcat-apache.conf
  uriworkermap.properties-auto
  web.xml

So, I copied these from another machine.

3) I have no logs in /var/log/tomcat.

4) I have another machine with an updated 3.1 -> 3.2, and it has logs,
but reports:

omega:/var/log/tomcat# zcat stdout.log.1.gz
Starting tomcat. Check logs/tomcat.log for error messages

java.io.FileNotFoundException:

  ..... etc....

Any hints?

I completely started clean with a new install on my first machine above,
so hoped it would all work easily!

Thanks for any pointers.
