Did you follow the steps in deploying web applications? There are two techniques in having Tomcat serve up your web applications.

Below was taken from DSpace online documentation:

  • Technique A. Tell your Tomcat/Jetty/Resin installation where to find your DSpace web application(s). As an example, in the directory [tomcat]/conf/Catalina/localhost you could add files similar to the following (but replace [dspace]with your installation location):

    DEFINE A CONTEXT FOR DSpace XML User Interface: xmlui.xml

    <?xml version='1.0'?> <Context docBase="[dspace]/webapps/xmlui" debug="0" reloadable="true" cachingAllowed="false"/>

  • Technique B. Simple and complete. You copy only (or all) of the DSpace Web application(s) you wish to use from the [dspace]/webapps directory to the appropriate directory in your Tomcat/Jetty/Resin installation. For example: cp -R [dspace]/webapps/* [tomcat]/webapps* (This will copy all the web applications to Tomcat). cp -R [dspace]/webapps/jspui [tomcat]/webapps* (This will copy only the jspui web application to Tomcat.)

Also check your Tomcat logs for any errors.
