I don't know if this has been resolved or not but, my experience is
1. centos 6.2 on a rackspace installation and
2. centos 6.3 on a mac mini in the office for preliminary deployment
I had every issue that I have seen here, but there was light (ya veedel svyet)!!!
both of these links helped!!
http://wiki.wocommunity.org/display/documentation/Installing+a+deployment+environment+on+RedHat,+CentOS+or+Amazon+Linux
http://www.mrxinu.com/2013/06/07/custom-selinux-port-access/
I started by downloading the distro. installing it and using Yum for all updates and install of java, postgresql, apache. (I left out fonts as I convert or create what I need and install them with the application. I used the wocommunity rpms for webobjects.
SELinux and the firewall were the things that bit me both times. Personally, I would experiment with a mini and download the distro clean. Shut off the firewall and SELinux.
I spent no more than 2.5 hours (maybe three) where most of it was waiting for things to download and install. If you like I will disk image my mac mini install for you.

Thus, when one of us gets such a CentOS 6.2 WO template working, could we make such a thing for the cloud distributers, like TurnKey Linux and their competitors? We will thank ye giants properly, when we can make to the same tavern to buy you a pint. Until then, I hope that an email word of gratitude will do.
