Can anyone help me to solve the following case?
I am trying to generate my first web site using java and working with Eclipse Galileo running on Ubuntu 9.10. Since I generate my first lines of code I haven't seen the web. All the time when I try to run the program I get the following error:
Several ports (8080, 8080) required by Tomcat v6.0 Server at localhost are already in use. The server may already be running in another process, or a system process may be using the port. To start this server you will need to stop the other process or change the port number(s).
I have read a lot about the way to change the ports for my tomcat (pass from the 8080 to 80) but it has been impossible. I read some forums where the way to solve this problem is going to the file that contents the server number for tomcat, which is a XML file, but when I open the folder there is not a xml file with the name.
I already explored the port using sudo lsof -n -P -i :, start and shut-down tomcat but the mistake is still there.
What can I do?
Thanks a lot.
In your apache conf folder, open the httpd file and look for 8080 port. Change 8080 to any port you like. I believe you will find 8080 on two places. Restart your server to see changes.
