I had some issues regarding Eclipse and Tomcat. Try setting the IP address for your tomcat to 127.0.0.1 Access it from your browser by the same ip and your port and you should be able to load the tomcat welcome page.

At the beginning, you said : When I start startup.sh, I can load the localhost:8080 page. But when I start Tomcat from Eclipse, it is able to start but I'm unable to load the localhost page. Explorer says, "could not connect to localhost:8080". That seems to indicate that Tomcat is not listening on port 8080, when you start it from Eclipse. I am not an Eclipse user, but from similar previous posts on this list, that seems to indicate that Eclipse is using another set of configuration files for Tomcat, than the ones that are used when you start Tomcat from startup.sh. You did not say on which platform you are running this, but try the following to confirm : A) 1) start Tomcat with startup.sh 2) in a command window, enter "netstat -pan" (Linux) or "netstat -aopn" (Windows), and look for lines containing the word LISTEN. You should see a line containing the port ":8080". That is Tomcat, and its PID is at the end of the same line. 3) stop Tomcat B) 1) start Tomcat with Eclipse 2) in a command window, enter "netstat -pan" (Linux) or "netstat -aopn" (Windows), and look for lines containing the word LISTEN. Do you see a line containing the port ":8080" ? If not, and you see for instance a line with port ":80" instead, then it means that Tomcat is started differently. (And try "http://localhost:80";) If so, search the archives of this list as to how to correct that issue. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
