Tomcat Startup Problem

[Henry Fleming]

Hi

1) I installed Tomcat (jakarta-tomcat-4.1.29) on my standalone WinXP machine.
2) I then ran startup.bat, got

Starting service Tomcat-Standalone
Apache Tomcat/4.1.29
Oct 31, 2003 11:44:38 PM org.apache.struts.util...
...
Oct 31, 2003 11:44:45 PM org.apache.jk.server.JkMain start
INFO: Jk running ID=0 time=0/109 config=C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.29\bin\...

3) I typed http://localhost:8080 in my browser
4) I get a message that says "Page cannot be displayed".

Has anyone else gotten this before, and can anyone help?

thank you.

Henry, XP can be fancy regarding localhost, so try to type your ip
address instead. Let say your ip @ is 101.102.103.1, you can see it by
typing ipconfig under a prompt.

Http://101.102.103.1:8080 could fix your pb.

Hi,

Are you still having this problem? Try checking the logs. You can
find them in $Catalina_home$\logs. That's the first place I'd look.

And if you don't have permanent IP then try http://127.0.0.1:8080/
I had same problems with Win 2000
