Do you have access to the Tomcat/webapps directory or do you use another directory in your domain area? Did you get an error after filling in the install.jsp page?

Also, the jforum-2.1.7-b3.zip file is missing the "__index.redirect" file, which will give you the "write access required" error.

"i have sql running" - well, Sql actually is just the Standard Query Language ... so not really saying which SQL Server type you are using.

Aside that, if you have tomcat running I assume that you have SSH / local access - as tomcat is quite uncommon on webservers ;) So you simply have to run the mysql command to insert the build and input script of the required sql server type.
mysql < scriptpath/name .. providing the required user credentials via -u parameter ^^

Another hint maybe: if you provide a link to "jforum", it's quite confusing to land on a php based forum ;)
