Binary package hint: tomcat6

On specifying any value less than 1024 for the -c option of tomcat6-instance-create, the server instance does not work as expected. It gets configured and gets started, but pages won't load in the browser.
For example, on running
$tomcat6-instance-create -c 1001 -p 8001 ~/my_tomcat

It configures the instance properly, with the specified port values also appearing in ~/my_tomcat/conf/server.xml . The server also starts successfully. But, I cannot access http://localhost:8001/
On opening it, in the browser, the browser simply says "Page not found" .

There is no problem in shutting down the server. This behaviour is occuring for any values less than 1024 for the control port.

And, on specifying a value greater than 1024 for -c , it does not cause any such problems.

I have following configuration:
Ubuntu 10.10
tomcat6-user 6.0.28-2ubuntu1.1
tomcat6 6.0.28-2ubuntu1.1
Architecture: x86
