I am running 0.7m5 using the default tomcat 5 installation
provided by SuSE Linux 9.3
Any hints ?
How does the wizard determine a so called "valid" tomcat installation ?

Hmm, the directory structure doesn't seem to be the problems cause.
Using a SuSE Linux 9.1 installation where the tomcat directory structure is
identically the wizard does his job as expected.

I did a fresh install with tomcat 5.5 and now it works. So the problem
seems be related to the symbolic links.
Is this behaviour wanted?
