Sorry, I tried 8081, but also 8080 (as in a previous mail), but both won't connect.
After Tomcat start, did you verify that it's really listening on these ports (netstat -antpl)? Verify first that it's listening to that port (there should be 2 default ports: 8009 and 8080) and have a look at the catalina.out log
Once Tomcat is installed and the deamon started up, can I automatically connect to this port (8080), to a default page, or do I still have some configuration to do before I can make the connection ? Is this what the server.xml file is for, or is this only if I want to start adding my own custom applications ? (or am I completely missing the target ?)
Yes, there is a default page, kind of welcome. You will use server.xml later to customize / harden your tomcat installation. Actually once you get it working, have a look at server-minimal.xml and verify that you understand it, then use it to start your tomcat and add only what you need. Regards, Gaël
