hmm I vaugley have an idea what you are talking about... not sure if
this will help though.. is tomcat up and running...
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.IS...omcat/x174.html
shows some of the basic concepts a google search on tomcaat + setup
should get you a bunch of infos on defaults for operating.. the
defaults should work if it isn't scripting or a down server then
another option listed at that url is
If your port 8080 is occupied by some other service, you can change it
by editing the server.xml in your Tomcat's conf/ directory. In the
example below, the port will be changed to 80, assuming there is no
service running on that port.
# cd /usr/local/tomcat-4.0/conf
# fgrep -n 8080 server.xml
~65: By default, a non-SSL HTTP/1.1 Connector is established
on port 8080.
~89: port="8080" minProcessors="5" maxProcessors="75"
# cat server.xml | sed s/8080/80/ > server.xml.new
# mv server.xml.new server.xml
how ever if you had it working previously I'm unsure it would have to
do with some conflict.
1. have you installed any new software packages
2. have you altered config files
Other then this the steps I would take are as follows.
1. check to see if you can access the server from another place
another comp etc.. that is networked.
2 if unable to connect at all, see if the machine is still accesable
via say
ftp or telnet etc...
3. check to make sure a firewall isn't blocking your service.
If these steps don't work I would backup data and put a fresh copy on
the drive using online tutorials etc.. to make sure your config is set
up properly.
If you are still having issues at this point back up critical and
originial files then nuke the system/drive and set it up again.. of
course nuking a built up system is a little uhm... damaging so if you
have a backup image which until
rewritable dvds are mainstream or HUGE 20gb flash memory cards are for
cheap may
be a little odd for most poeple to make backups prior to any system
change..tape backups etc..
I really got no clue what the issue is as I'm new to servers as well.
I've notice the general comp rule is 1. if you are new don't go out of
bounds or if you do make sure you have a backup file for anything you
change.."just in case".
No idea really ....
