Hi,
I'm new to Tomcat and cannot find the answer to the following question
(if I'm missing something, I'd kindly appreciate a pointer into the
documentation):
I've got Tomcat set up with a server.xml file that (in part) looks like:
<Engine
name="Catalina"
defaultHost="my.server.com">
<Realm className="org.apache.catalina.realm.UserDatabaseRealm"/>
<Host
appBase="webapps"
name="my.server.com"
unpackWARs="true"
autoDeploy="true"
xmlValidation="false"
xmlNamespaceAware="false">
</Host>
</Engine>
I've got a directory (and associated web stuffing) at webapps/foo.
>From the localhost, when I hit the URL http://localhost:8080/foo , it
works perfectly - I'm redirected to port 8443 properly, and the
application comes up. I'm able to navigate into the app just fine.
But, when I hit it externally (from outside of my.server.com) with
http://my.server.com:8080/foo the browser eventually times out...
Any pointers as to what I've got set wrong would be appreciated.
Other particulars:
- Tomcat 5.5.17
- "my.server.com" is listed under my dns settings, and responds
correctly (to ping's, ssh, etc) from external sources
- ports 80, 8080 & 8443 are all open on the server
- apache is not running on the server (a standalone Tomcat
implementation)
- Linux implementation
- this happens both with me starting Tomcat with "catalina.sh run" and
"startup.sh" (running from either a user account or root behaves the
same)
Thanks for any help.
Cheers,
Greg
