http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=35514 Summary: Cannot access Tomcat server when run as service with a non-priveledged account Product: Tomcat 5 Version: 5.5.9 Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows XP Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Catalina AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Greetings. Sorry if this is fairly obvious, but I've been researching this heavily for quite some time and could not come up with anything. I'm interested in having Tomcat run as a service under an unpriveledged account in order to minimize security risks. I am able to change the "Log on as" user for Tomcat with the Windows Services manager. If it is an Administrative account such as "Local System," then I am able to access the server just fine. However, if it is an unpriveledged user, such as a user of group Users or the pre-defined LOCAL SERVICE and NETWORK SERVICE accounts, then I cannot access the server. The service appears to start and run just fine, but when I point a browser to the server it sits there spinning. It seems to me that this indicates that it is able to contact the server well enough, but that the server is prevented from running something because of its lesser priveledges. I checked the logs, but they don't relate anything beyond startup and shutdown entries. Ideally, it would be nice to have it run as LOCAL SERVICE or NETWORK SERVICE because these are pre-defined accounts for this purpose.
