Hi, Thanks Rajeev, i hadn't initialized the factory properly, now i don't get a null pointer exception, and it shows in the console that http connector is initialized and started at the port i'v given say 9002, but http is still not enabled in the sense that an html page does not run on http://localhost:90002/welcome.html
I have initialized the factory as: factory = new MBeanFactory(); and then called the createHttpConnector( "Catalina:type=Service,serviceName=Catalina", "127.0.0.1", 9002);
