Hi,

From this I guess Oracle App server is running on the port you are referring to. Can you post the complete exception message?

hi everyone,

I too get the same error when i start my Tomcat 5.0. Is it necessary to change the port no of tomcat.

Can any one guide me?

Hi,

What i understood from the posted problem is that when you try to start tomcat service it is trying to start oracle's servlet engine. Which means the tomcat home variable has been updated by oracle when you've installed Oracle.
To Solve this set the CATALINA_HOME variable to the tomcat installation directory and then try to start the tomcat service.
To identify whether this is exactly the problem, open the command prompt and go to the tomcat installation directory and then to the bin directory. From there try to start the tomcat using catalina.bat file or catalina.sh [for linux env.] if it starts correctly then the problem is with CATALINA_HOME variable. Then try to set the CATALINA_HOME variable and then try to start the tomcat service.

Hope thats helpful.

My fastest workaround was switching Tomcat default port in %CATALINA_HOME%/conf/server.xml from

Code:

<Connector port="8080"...

to

Code:

<Connector port="8081"...

After this http://localhost:8081/ leads correctly to tomcat main page.
Hope this helps.
Bye

I would suggest the following steps:

1. Do a 'netstat -ab' command at commandline
2. Check the PID of the process that is occupyng the 8080 port.
3. Open Task Manager and check the Process with that Process ID.
4. Should probably say java.exe or javaw.exe cox Oracle runs the Java process
5. Kill that Process and restart Tomcat.

This should hopefully fix the problem. However to fix the problem, I would recommend that you open Services and disable Oracle App Server if any.
