If your router have port forwarding try that. Wayne Bragg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: For what it's worth. I wouldn't be so quick, did he ever say what error page he was getting from outside? This happened to me and it was because I wasn't handing off the NEW app code to Tomcat from httpd jk connector ie: JkMount /what-ever-your-app/*.jsp ajp13worker1. Depends on how he set up Tomcat. It was an obvious mistake from a newbie.

So: - You have a NATted network - From the machine hosting Tomcat, you can connect using localhost - From the outside world, you can connect using the external IP address - From inside the NAT, you cannot connect using the external IP address Is that correct? If so, this sounds like a common feature with cheap routers - they don't all route requests for their external IP correctly from within the NATted subnet. My old router had this problem. Buy a better router or accept that you won't be able to test the application on the external IP from inside :-). If any of my assumptions are wrong, tell us - we're going to need more information about your network to help debug this, I think. - Peter --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- No virus found in this incoming message.
