Thank you for your reply, André.
Unfortunately, the Tomcat 9 Ubuntu package is only available on Ubuntu 18 and
19 (at least that I could find). I'm on 16 at the moment (though I did think
about upgrading) which is why I'm using the binary distribution from
tomcat.apache.org.
The good news is I was able to get authbind to work. If anyone is interested in
the steps I used, please let me know.
Yes, of course. The fact of posting this to the mailing list, may help someone else later
resolve a similar issue more quickly.
.. if they search the mailing list archive first, of course.
Thanks again,
Ralph

Hi.
Apologies for breaking conventions of this list and top-posting..
It seems that the issue below is more of a question for the Ubuntu list,
than Tomcat's.
The standard /etc/init.d/tomcat9 startup script included in the Ubuntu
tomcat9 package,
should allow starting tomcat 9 on port 80 without any changes to the
tomcat configuration
or scripts (other than setting the Connector to port 80 in server.xml).
If "it doesn't work", you should consult the Ubuntu user's support list,
where you are
more likely to find appropriate answers.

At another level : below, you mention trying authbind (which is what the
standard Ubuntu
startup script does), but "I could not get it to work".
Did you check that the settings of authbind are correct, for port 80 ?
See :

I need to run it on port 80 & 443. On our old server we have a script we use, but
it doesn’t work upon startup (due to the needing to use sudo to get privileges to bind
to port 80). For this new build, I was hoping to streamline the process and have
Tomcat start upon boot. I’ve been doing a lot of Google searching on binding port 80
on Tomcat, but most of what I found was for older versions. Here’s what I found:

Should I just bite the bullet and use an HTTP proxy?
