Back If my quick read of your problem is correct, (only works when run from command line) then I would venture to say that you may have a rights issue. Who owns the app? By default Tomcat starts from the scripts as owner tomcat where as from the command line it is running as you (root or some admin level). Try chown and chgrp the app to tomcat and see if that helps.
No even moving it into the folder does not give Tomcat the rights to access it. You could also change the access rights but I would be careful there as letting anyone execute code is not a good thing, but chgrp to tomcat and group executable would work. Just make sure you understand what the implications of the changes you make are, even on ownership and group membership.
