Here's what I would do , granted I don`t have much windows experience but a
couple things I `d try. If you can see the servlets, it may not be a port
problem. Are you running through an http server such as apache ?
I would think just maybe you have the runtime engine set as JAVA_HOME
not the JSDK. The best way to approach is one change at a time.
1) Is it running as a service ? If so disable that so you can start and stop
it yourself.
2) With tomcat stopped, does anything display on http://localhost:8080 ?
3) Change TOMCAT_HOME to CATALINA_HOME (may solve ), CATALINA_HOME should be
the base installation directory (example c:\tomcat )
4) make sure JAVA_HOME is set to java base dir (C:\j2sdk1.4.0-rc)
5) does it work ?
6) C:\tomcat\bin\shutdown.bat ( if not)
7) Open Server.xml in a text editor,
look for:
<!-- Define a non-SSL HTTP/1.1 Connector on port 8080 -->
<Connector className="org.apache.catalina.connector.http.HttpConnector"
port="8080" minProcessors="5" maxProcessors="75"
enableLookups="true" redirectPort="8443"
acceptCount="10" debug="0" connectionTimeout="60000"/>
<!-- Note : To disable connection timeouts, set connectionTimeout value
to -1 -->
Change the port to say 9090
8) C:\tomcat\bin\startup.bat
9) try http://localhost:9090 or http://127.0.0.1:9090
10) Write me back with errors.
