Gary, You can see a list of assigned ports in /etc/services. If you want to check that a port not listed there is in use or not, use the command: netstat -an | grep [number] If you get no result, the port is not in use. Paul. -- Paul Caton Electronic Publications Editor Women Writers

if you are on a linux box, try : ps -ef | grep tomcat if any process are shown, try to shut it down (shutdown.sh), if it doesn't work, try to kill the parent process. good luck : ) Emerson - Original Message - From: Tom Oinn [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Tomcat Users List [EMAIL PROTECTED]

simple and dirty, you've probably tried it already- fire up a browser with localhost:8080 as the URL (making sure tomcat isn't running) and if IIS or any other server is running, some sort of default page should tell you what the server is. then you can kill it, (permanently if it's IIS ;)) a.

sorry, just noticed- you are running IIS, which (last time i saw it) runs on 8080 by default. you can change your tomcat port easily thus: open up server.xml (you'll find it at $CATALINA_HOME$/conf) at line 54 or thereabouts you'll find a port setting- change the port to some port in the

Hi Gary, The netstat message tells you that some process is indeed using that port. I was going to suggest you follow Olaf Jahn's suggestion to find out what it is, but I see Alan Eustace has already provided the answer (ie. it's almost certainly IIS listening onthat port). Looks like you're
