Hi there, Thank you for reporting bugs and trying to make Ubuntu better.
Given that it is a known fact that non-root services cannot run in port higher than 1024, and not being a real issue and rather a usability bug, I believe that this bug report doesn't really affect the functioning of tomcat. Furthermore, as this is a known fact, maybe the logs have displayed the error message you were seeking for. However, It can still be possible to run tomcat in "higher ports". This information can be found at [1]. For this reason, I'm marking this bug as incomplete as it doesn't really affect the functionality of tomcat.
