Using The Tomcat Container

[Mukerjee, Neiloy (Neil)]

I am installing Solr 1.3.0, and currently have been trying to use Tomcat 5.5. 
This hasn't been working so far for me, and I have been told (unofficially) 
that my installation would go more smoothly if I were to use Tomcat 6. Does 
anyone have experiencing with Solr 1.3 and Tomcat 5.5?
