If you are running on Linux you may have problems using a 'plain' tomcat installation pointing at port 80. This is a system port and reserved for privileged access. You must

1. use some kind of redirection such as iptables and leave the tomcat mapping at 8080

OR

2 you must run tomcat as root THIS IS VERY BAD DON'T DO THIS

OR

3. use something like jsvc and set the 'user' to tomcat after starting up as root. jsvc will start as root and bind to the port and then
switch to the non-privileged tomcat user for normal operation.

Why did you feel the need to change this, if you were able to connect
to the instance of httpd before?

And what's the "8084" for?

But as already suggested, make sure that Tomcat's actually running
and can be accessed locally; if not, check your startup logs.
