Hello Everyone,

I copied tomcat5.5 and executed startup.bat. It is started and I got the message as seen below

As per the log I assumed that the server gets started up and tried to access through the URL http://localhost:8080 and its showing server not found/page cannot be displayed message.

Could anyone let me advice on the possibilities for this issue.

Any valuable input is highly appreciated.


Thanks in advance

Tomcat can start up fast, but not that fast!

It appears that you haven't deployed any web applications to the Tomcat server.

What would pretty much seal the case is if the error pages you're getting are Tomcat's "404" Resource Not Found status pages, because in that case, you are accessing Tomcat, but Tomcat has no content to deliver.

It might be on wrong port.
check your server.xml for the port
