Running Tomcat as Standalone in linux
Hi guys,
I want to serve a site with few graphics so I decided to use Tomcat 5.5 as my server. But I'm having difficulty getting it to run on port 80. I read http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/l-secjav.html and decided to try xinetd. I added this to /etc/xinetd/:
# Redirects any port 80 requests to port 8180 (to Tomcat)
service tomcat
{
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
user = root
wait = no
port = 80
redirect = localhost 8180
disable = no
}
it works great on that machine if I point my browser but remotely I get zilch. I've tried plugging in my ip address instead of localhost: zilch. Could anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks.
Chris

verify the listen address is broadcasting on port 80 on the web-server e.g.?netstat -a | grep 80Martin______________________________________________Disclaimer and confidentiality noteEverything in this e-mail and any attachments relates to the official business of Sender.

You can also use the java service launcher that is located in the bin directory
of the distribution. You need to compile it and install it. What it does is
launch tomcat on port 80 as root, but changes the owner to be something else,
like 'tomcat'. That way, you can run it on port 80, but not as root.
A way of launching it from say /etc/init.d is with a script like the following:
#!/bin/sh
#
# chkconfig: 345 86 15
# description: Tomcat Server
#
# Small shell script to show how to start/stop Tomcat using jsvc
# If you want to have Tomcat running on port 80 please modify the server.xml
# file:
#
# <!-- Define a non-SSL HTTP/1.1 Connector on port 80 -->
# <Connector className="org.apache.catalina.connector.http.HttpConnector"
# port="80" minProcessors="5" maxProcessors="75"
# enableLookups="true" redirectPort="8443"
# acceptCount="10" debug="0" connectionTimeout="60000"/>
#
#
# Adapt the following lines to your configuration
JAVA_HOME=/usr/jdk
CATALINA_HOME=/opt/tomcat
CATALINA_BASE=/opt/webBaseDir
DAEMON_HOME=/usr/local/bin
TOMCAT_USER=tomcat
