Thanks for quick answer. Nothing running on 80 port, selinux and firewall disabled, so no need for writing iptables rules. What do you mean by saying i need support from Fedora? What kind of support? Would everything be easier if i just download newest tomcat tar archive and manually install/run it?

Regards,
Karolis M.

I use fedora 17 and from yum downloaded tomcat-7.0.33 version.

You may need support from Fedora, since repackaged versions of Tomcat do not always behave the way real ones do.

I changed port from 8080 to 80 in server.xml, restarted tomcat and
got the following error in catalina.out file:

SEVERE: Failed to initialize end point associated with ProtocolHandler ["http-bio-80"]

Check if anything else is using port 80 with netstat.

I'm logged in to fedora with root user. Any help would be appreciated.

You might not be running Tomcat as root (which is good - you shouldn't), since the 3rd-party repackaged versions often fiddle with the start/stop scripts. Since you're not using a real Tomcat, the FAQ entry for this topic may need adjustment, but it should help:
