Here's the init script we use, if it helps at all:

#!/bin/sh
#
# Tomcat Server
#
# chkconfig: 345 96 30
# description: Java servlet container

JAVA_HOME=/opt/jdk

PATH=${JAVA_HOME}/bin:${PATH}

TOMCAT_START=/opt/tomcat/bin/startup.sh

TOMCAT_STOP=/opt/tomcat/bin/shutdown.sh

export JAVA_HOME PATH

start()
{
        if [ -x ${TOMCAT_START} ]; then
                echo "Starting tomcat server..."
                ${TOMCAT_START} &
        else
                echo "Cannot start tomcat server"
        fi
}

stop()
{
        if [ -x ${TOMCAT_STOP} ]; then
                echo "Stopping tomcat server..."
                ${TOMCAT_STOP} &
        else
                echo "Cannot stop tomcat server"
        fi
}

restart()
{
        stop
        sleep 10
        start
}

status()
{
        echo "No status available for tomcat server"
}

case "$1" in
'start')
        start
        ;;
'stop')
        stop
        ;;
'restart')
        restart
        ;;
'status')
        status
        ;;
*)
        echo "Please supply an argument [start|stop|restart]"
esac
