QM thanks for your reply

the URL is http://127.0.0.1:8080/ . The set up wizard for tomcat server version 5 set up the software. I didn't make any adjustments to the settings. How can I check the DNS etc. as you suggested? I did try a google on that but it was difficult to find something I could try. How can I check that the tomcat server is working and is on port 8080?

I think you just did, and it's not :-)

If that URL entered into your browser is getting no response, then
you can confirm it by using `telnet localhost 8080` to see if you
get a server prompt back. I'm pretty sure you won't...

Arrrr, forget all that wizard nonsense, matey[*1]; open a cmd window (presuming you're on Windows). Change dirs to the bin subdirectory of the directory where tomcat's installed; try to start the server in the foreground using the command "catalina.bat run" and use that output to determine what's (not) happening.
