Litespeed + Tomcat 5.5 howto?

[pcguru]

I've been evaluating Litespeed for possible deployment on our site and so far I've been impressed in every aspect. We will most likely purchase a permanent enterprise license in the coming week.

Right now I'm about to start testing the JSP processing backend. I have not been able to make it work though unfortunately. My knowledge of Tomcat is limited. :roll:

Tomcat responds on host:8080 and the tomcat hello test jsp pages have been deployed and are available at host:8080/servlets/

Litspeed config:
On server level I have configured an External App called Tomcat 5.5.
Adress: localhost:8009
Also I've added a scripthandler for .jsp that uses the External App.

On a certain virtual host I have defined a Java Web App context:
URI: /servlets/
Servlet Engine: Tomcat 5.5 (server level)
index files: index.jsp

http://host/servlets/ just responds "500 Internal Server Error".
Litespeed log says "Premature end of response header" as well as "[localhost:8009] Connection refused, restart!"

Any ideas?
