If you want to run your project within NetBeans click on the "Runtime" tab. Under Server Registry -> Installed Servers -> Tomcat, you will find the internal installation of Tomcat. If you right click the icon you will see all of the options available to you (starting, stopping, etc). The NetBeans installation runs on port 8081. If you need to add an external installation of Tomcat, right click on the "Tomcat" menu and select "Add Tomcat Installation". I am pretty sure this will modify your server.xml file, so, make a back up... I am not an expert on NetBeans by any means, so, I hope this helps.
