Ouch. As Sebastian said, 8.0.x has not been supported for over six years. Your first step should be updating to version 9.0.x, then think about 10.1 or 11.

I was expecting the webpage, not the text of the page. If Tomcat is running, then it would appear that the JSP servlet isn’t functioning properly and the request was handled by the default servlet - but it’s pointless to pursue this on 8.0.53. However, it may be that something else on your system is serving up the page, not Tomcat. > I checked the ihyp/logs directory and there were no error messages there.
