Why do you need the ports to be 80 and 443? (You cannot open those on Linux unless you are a root). You can a) change the port numbers in your configuration b) use firewall (iptables) to map different local ports to those external ones https://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/HowTo#How_to_run_Tomcat_without_root_privileges.3F Also, https://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/FAQ/Linux_Unix#Q5 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
