Are your geotiff's actual geotiffs ( tagged ) or world image files (
.tif + .tfw ). There was a recent patch to the world image stuff that
might be throwing the rendering off. Andrea should better be able to know.

Hmm, I have never had to do anything special with tomcat running on
linux even with an external data directory. Could it be another system
setting that is not allowing you to write to that directory. I notice
the directory trying to be written to is the one under your application
server. Are you sure the user runnign tomcat has write access to that
directory. Apologies if you have already verified this but its the only
thing i can think of.
