The standard http port number is 80. If you want
http://localhost/examples.... to work then edit your server.xml file and
change 8080 to 80.

Subject: why must I add the port number
Hi, I have installed tomcat as a standalone webserver on Win 2000.
To get a page or a servlet I have to type e.g.
http://localhost:8080/examples/servlet/helloWorldExample
but why must I include the port? Isn`t it the standard http port as in all
other webservers? If the port number is missing I get "Cannot find server"
and "The page cannot be displayed"
Thanks
