if u want to run tomcat on the said port you have to ensure that u stop apache coz it binds on port 80 or change the default apache port to something else then do the necessary changes on ur tomcat installation such that it listens on port 80

Thanks Wasington.

But, wouldn't this expose my Tomcat to the web as per Duggan's email?


Hi Martin,

Running Tomcat standalone isn't necesarily insecure. But there are features that you may want, that are supported by Apache and other Web servers, but not Tomcat. Check out this short thread from the tomcat-users mailing list: <http://www.mail-archive.com/users@tomcat.apache.org/msg36248.html>.

Joseph.
