Port 8007 shouldn't be available for that purpose.. It should only accept
connections from the webserver you are running. If you telnet in, you will
get a lot of bad packets and if you use an older version of tomcat, then
tomcat/apache connection will be down when you telnet in..
If you run standalone check to see if there is a reply on port 8080, if you
don't run standalone check to see if if a servlet gives a response.
