Yes, your Java is set up correctly.

Most of the subfolders in /usr/share/tomcat4 are just symlinks to subfolders
of /var/lib/tomcat4. In fact, /usr/share/tomcat4/webapps points to
/var/lib/tomcat4/webapps, so it doesn't matter if you put your JSP files in one
or another.

See? The port Tomcat is using is 8005 (I think this is Debian's default value).
So you should try localhost:8005 in your browser instead of localhost:8080.
Good luck.
