Starting from Fedora 22 Tomcat 7.0 has been replaced with Tomcat 8.0 (see http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=12023). The current Dogtag is written for Tomcat 7.0, so it doesn't work on Fedora 22.
One problem is the server.xml included in Dogtag references a class that no longer exists on 8.0:
<Server port="8005" shutdown="SHUTDOWN"> ... <Listener className="org.apache.catalina.core.JasperListener" /> ... </Server>
So starting Dogtag on F22 will fail:
24-Feb-2015 02:13:17.815 SEVERE [main] org.apache.tomcat.util.digester.Digester.startElement Begin event threw exception java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.catalina.core.JasperListener ...
There may be other problems too. This will require further investigation.
One solution is to support both Tomcat versions simultaneously (e.g. providing the server.xml for each Tomcat version). This way the same Dogtag version (e.g. 10.2.x) can run on both F21 and F22.
Another solution is to use different Dogtag versions for different Tomcat versions. Ideally this kind of change should be done in a new minor version, so F21 will have 10.2.x and F22 will have 10.3.x.
Either way, an upgrade script will be needed to convert the 7.0 server.xml in existing instances to 8.0 if necessary.
This blocks FreeIPA in Fedora 22.

I created Fedora bug.
The investigation is documented in this page: http://pki.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Tomcat_8
Per 10.2.3 Triage meeting of 02/26/2015: leave here until we now which release is on F22
Tomcat 8 was reverted in F22 (see https://fedorahosted.org/fesco/ticket/1418) and pushed back to F23.
Dogtag support for Tomcat 8 on F23 depends on tomcatjss (see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1198450).
This also depends on ticket #1281.
Per CS/DS Meeting of 03/09/2015: 10.3
NOTE: Since Tomcat 8 was postponed until Fedora 23.

Still needs an upgrade script.
Moving this ticket to 10.2.3 per discussion with alee. The auto migration will be done in ticket #1310.
