If you deploys successfully a war file, then open a browser and type
http://localhost:<PORT_ON_WHICH_BEA_RUNNING>/WAR_FILE_NAME

If BEA is servlet container, then it should able to run Struts project.

Hmm, its because, my guess is, because of the BEA server is already running on that port, Tomcat throws error.
Use c:>netstat -a, to find out the port process.

[Poorna Nandam]

yes you are absolutly right...
port 8080 is already in use.
so now how can i change the port for tomcat server.
please do sugest me.



Thank you
Poorna

Why are you using Tomcat, if BEA web logic is already configured and you had deployed your war file successfully there. Still If you want, I suggest to change the Tomcat port to something other than 8080, like 8081, while installing Tomcat.

[Poorna Nandam]

Thank you very much for the valuable information.

As you said i am using weblogic server only forget abot Tomcat server.
now i am trying to running the application
http://localhost:7001/struts-blank-1.3.10

but 404 Error is coming


can you sugest me


Thank you inadvance.

Did you deploy it? How?

If this is a deployment issue you might want to ask in an IDE/app server forum.

[Sagar Rohankar]

Check out the logs if its not get deployed correctly. Find out for any exception/error which prevents war from deploying.

[Leonardo Carreira]

You can change port for tomcat server in TomcatHome\conf\server.xml..

[Poorna Nandam]

sorry for inconvience. can you please tell me where i need to change the port.
There are several ports.
please see the server.xml file and mark me where i need to change.
also one more query do i need to change in any where else other than this server.xml.

Thanks ,
Poorna

[Sagar Rohankar]

I really do not understand, You said earlier that WebLogic is youe default configured server on your machine, now you want to use Tomcat ? My point is, if you are not able to deploy it into WebLogic, then How the change of server would help you ?

[David Newton]

No, really, this belongs in a server or IDE forum.
