Hello,
I am trying to configure tomcat 7 on ubuntu machine and wanted to run it as
non-root on port 80, Here is what I did so far:
OS (Ubuntu 12.04 LTS):
- installed oracle JDK 1.7.0_45 using "apt-get"
- downloaded and extracted tomcat 7.0.50 (.gz format)
- created ubuntu user 'tomcat' and granted 'chown -R CATALINA_HOME' to this
user
- changed tomcat default port to 80 in server.xml
- installed and configured authbind tool
- created sh script "/etc/init.d/tomcat7" to start tomcat as tomcat user.
- tomcat 7 was working as expected on 80 port as non-root user.
- later I configured APR 1.5.0 and tried to run tomcat again, I got this
error:

If I am removing out this line from server.xml:
<Listener className="org.apache.catalina.core.AprLifecycleListener"
SSLEngine="on" />
Tomcat working on 80 port as non-root user and starting "http-bio-80"
properly.
Another thing is if I am trying to run tomcat as "root" along with APR
support, its working just fine.
Any advise why its working on "http-bio-80" while throwing bind exception
on "http-apr-80"??

Mubeen
