It looks like the port is being used by another application. Run Shutdown.sh once, and then run startup.sh and still if you get the same error as Catalina.start: LifecycleException: Protocol handler initialization failed: java.net.BindException: Address already in use:8080
Then some other application is using the port Access server.xml file and change port from 8080 to say 7645 . Try to start the server and access the page at http://localhost:7645 Best Regards, Avinash ----- Original Message ----- From: "John Villar" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Tomcat Users List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, September 08, 2004 9:45 PM Subject: Re: Help with Tomcat Install? > > >Catalina.start: LifecycleException: Protocol handler initialization failed: java.net.BindException: Address already in use:8080 > >LifecycleException: Protocol handler initialization failed: java.net.BindException: Address already in use:8080 > > > > > This error is saying that port 8080 is already taken, probably by your > already running Tomcat daemon, it is common in that case > > -- > John Villar > Gerente de Proyectos > Computadores Flor Hard Soft 2058 C.A. > www.florhard.com > > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] DISCLAIMER: This message (including attachment if any) is confidential and may be privileged.
