Re: How to start tomcat on a port other than 8080

Hi,

For changing the tomcat 8080 port:

Goto %TOMCAT_HOME%\conf/server.xml

Change the connector port to 8081(search for 8080) in this file.

<Connector
> port="8080"               maxHttpHeaderSize="8192"
>                maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" maxSpareThreads="75"
>                enableLookups="false" redirectPort="8443" acceptCount="100"
>                connectionTimeout="20000" disableUploadTimeout="true" />
>

BR,
Kamal
