I attempted to install Tomcat on port 9080 but it didn't work (the link that it says to try after it says"the tomcat install is now complete".

So, it says after:

BEFORE YOU PROCEED ANY FURTHER

Please ensure that http://servername:9080 works

Well, I tried the link and it doesn't work

What am I doing wrong here?

Any help is truly appreciated. Thank you much.

did you replace the servername with the name of your server... NOT the ip. the server name .. just like server1.domain.com:9080 or a working domain.

Yes I did.

Also, during my several attempts I got:

used port 9090 and redirect 9060 (even tried default 8443) both times got this message:

Scanning httpd.conf...X.X..X..X..X...X..X.X..X..X..X..X...X ..X..X..X..X..X..X..X..X..X..X..X..X..X..X.X...X.. X.X..X...X..X..X..X..X..X..X.X...X..X..X..X..X.X.. .X..X..X..X..X.X..X...X..X.X.
./bin/Tomcat.sh: line 76: kill: (4409) - No such process
/usr/sbin/stoptomcat: line 18: kill: tomcat: no such pid
Killed

Why?

I have to use 9090 because 8080 is already used for jdk

that is good. the installer check if tomcat is not running already.

Also, I restarted tomcat via WHM and it told me:


tomcat has failed, please contact the sysadmin (result was "tomcat is not installed").

try starting it from ssh.
see wht happends.

I did that many times:

root@server [~]# starttomcat
root@server [~]#

That's all happens.

Funny, I just got an email also:

Tomcat_JSP failed @ Sat Aug 28 12:17:53 2004. A restart was attempted automagicly.

But, the link still doesn't work.

To let you know how I edited the httpd.conf file, this is what it looks like:

why not debug the output

sh -x starttomcat
