Ok, so I installed apache
tomcat 6 on windows vista.
I have it working, and the home page with links to examples and management page shows up when I go to link:
http://localhost:8080/ So I'm pretty sure I have it working the way it is supposed to. According to the config window, the service is started. So, as far as I can tell I should be hosting.
But, how do I access this over the internet? Do I have to register a dns or something?
This is what I have been trying...
http://myIPaddress:8080/ and I get typical link broken/can't display webpage error
I have also tried
http://myIPaddress/ but this just brings me to my router config page.
Do I need to configure my router? Register a DNS? I've spent the better part of a few hours searching for this info, and you would think that there would be tons of walkthroughs/trouble shooting pages on this, but I have yet to find any. Please help me out with some advice or at least point me to some useful resources.
Regards and thanks in advance.
