Zoe, The default port is 8080 :-) Check out localhost:8080 and let us know if your still getting a problem.

I have attempted to install a standalone Tomcat 4 as an RPM under RedHat Linux 7.1 but just can't get it to work. These are the steps I've followed: - Installed jdk-1.3.1_02.i386.rpm - Installed regexp-1.2-1.noarch.rpm - Installed servletapi4-4.0.2-3.noarch.rpm - Installed xerces-j-1.4.4-2.noarch.rpm - Installed tomcat4-4.0.2-3.noarch.rpm - Set JAVA_HOME="/usr/java/jdk1.3.1_02" in /etc/tomcat4/conftomcat4.conf - Set CATALINA_HOME="/var/tomcat4" in /etc/profile I then go into /etc/init.d and type "tomcat4 start" and I see the following: Using CATALINA_BASE: /var/tomcat4 Using CATALINA_HOME: /var/tomcat4 Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /var/tomcat4/temp Using JAVA_HOME: /usr/java/jdk1.3.1_02 But if I try to browse to http://localhost:8180 <http://localhost:8180/> I get the message "could not connect to host localhost (port 8180)". Where am I going wrong? I have read the documentation but am still none the wiser. I've installed Tomcat4 under Windows and it all went without a hitch, but Linux has me stumped. If anyone can offer any suggestions or point me to some good online help, then I'd be very grateful.
