Just opening port 8080 should > either allow both, or none. Something here doesn't fit. Just like Chuck said: Running from the console runs java.exe (or javaw.exe -- can't remember). He probably said "Allow" at some point long ago to a pop-up asking about java.exe accepting network connections. Running as a service runs Tomcat7.exe and services probably never pop-up anything asking for allowing incoming network connections, so it remained blocked. It's probably worth logging an enhancement request to (optionally) configure the firewall when installing Tomcat as a service. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.17 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with undefined - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEAREIAAYFAlDIogQACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PBQVACgn2vhBv1jgCfDnyNKDzgSBNf0 zoIAn00GDKPi8l2epOirBeUmujIGFDQS =P9Fm -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
