how can i change the port if i am using 8080 it opens oracle

[Mick Knutson]

edit ./conf/server.xml to change:

    <Connector port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1"
               connectionTimeout="20000"
               redirectPort="8443" />

to something like:

    <Connector port="8888" protocol="HTTP/1.1"
               connectionTimeout="20000"
               redirectPort="8443" />

What Mick has said is completely true, we can change the port in server.xml and these changes will be only in effect after recycle.

But before selecting the port number, verify that system is not using this port using the following command
netstat -atnp |grep "port" number ---------------- linux
netstat -atnp |find "port" number ---------------- windows

YW.

BTW, another tool if you want to see the ports and http traffic if you are on Windows:

HTTPDebugger: (my favorite)
