Can you run the following first and paste the results in your reply: netstat -an | grep 8080 tail -20 /etc/tomcat/logs/catalina.out (not sure if the log file is still in the above directory path, it has been a very long while since I installed and used Tomcat) The first command will tell you if Tomcat is running, while the second command will show you the last 20 lines of the Tomcat log. If there are problems starting up, the errors will show in the file catalina.out. BTW, the installation of Tomcat *is* trivial -- just download and unpack the tarball. It is the configuration that will have you tearing (any) hair (you have left) out! -- Pascal Chong email: chongym@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx web: http://cymulacrum.net pgp: http://cymulacrum.net/pgp/cymulacrum.asc "La science ne connaît pas de frontière parce que la connaissance appartient à l’humanité. et que c’est la flamme qui illumine le monde." -- Louis Pasteur
