Thank you for the feedback. Sorry for the incomplete information. The Apache http server is functioning as a reverse proxy. Multiple applications have to be accessed through the internet.
Now, I have Tomcat listening on 8081. Going to retour.mycompany.com:8080 or retour.mycompany.com:8081 gives a network timeout. (The server at retour.mycompany.com is taking too long to respond.) On the other hand, when I use the ip address like http://192.168.210.143:8080/ I get the resource (/) not found error while http://192.168.210.143:8081/ gives a network timeout. Tomcat without the Apache http server service gives the same network timeout when accessed through 8081. Hope this gives a clearer picture. Kind regards.
