Hi, Can I run Tomcat 5.0 on port 80? After setting 80
as port number in the server.xml and starting tomcat,
I got the following error message:

SEVERE: Error starting endpoint
java.net.BindException:permission denied:80


As many other posters have pointed out, only processes run as root can access ports below 1024. Personally, I would never run Tomcat as root. I use Apache/jk2 instead. It works well and is fairly easy to set up.

HTH.
