> I use fedora 17 and from yum downloaded tomcat-7.0.33 version. You may need support from Fedora, since repackaged versions of Tomcat do not always behave the way real ones do. > I changed port from 8080 to 80 in server.xml, restarted tomcat and > got the following error in catalina.out file: > SEVERE: Failed to initialize end point associated with ProtocolHandler > ["http-bio-80"] Check if anything else is using port 80 with netstat. > I'm logged in to fedora with root user. Any help would be appreciated. You might not be running Tomcat as root (which is good - you shouldn't), since the 3rd-party repackaged versions often fiddle with the start/stop scripts. Since you're not using a real Tomcat, the FAQ entry for this topic may need adjustment, but it should help: http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/HowTo#How_to_run_Tomcat_without_root_privileges.3F - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
