Hi Matthew,
Well I have the service enabled in my rc.conf... so going to 
localhost:8180 shows me the default tomcat page saying its working 
etc... the jsp examples work fine.
When i try /usr/local/etc/rc.d/tomcat55.sh stop
i get:
tomcat55 not running? (check /var/run/tomcat55.pid)
Thats it. tomcat55.pid contains 2039.
I created a jsp file with just plain html in it... but when i browse to 
it I get a HTTP 500 error (exception report).
I have the file in the correct place according to the docs so Im not 
sure why is not working... I have originally some small piece of jsp but 
figured Id have to restart the server in order for it to work, which is 
what Im trying to do now...
Thanks
Eoghan
