When I echo $CATALINA_HOME I get a blank line, but when I ls $CATALINA_HOME I correctly get a listing of the directory. Why can't I echo it? I am running Ubuntu 11.04.

Because ls $CATALINA_HOME is expanding $CATALINA_HOME to the empty string and accordingly simply doing ls (or ls . to be pedantic). Either you're in the correct directory already or you're not getting what you think you are.
