Hi all,
I have installed Tomcat 5.5.29 on Windows 2008 as a service.
It works fine on the computer where I installed it: http://localhost:8080/,
http://localhost:8080/admin, http://localhost:8080/manager/html,
http://localhost:8080/myWebApp answer well.
But when I try to access it from any other computer of the local private network, I get a
"Connection failed" error, ie. the URLs http://myServer:8080/,
http://myServer:8080/admin, etc... do not respond.
NB:
- the firewall is inactive on the server and on the clients
- my configuration is basic: no AJP, no proxy, no cluster, I call Tomcat
directly on the default ports
This :
- I tried a "telnet myServer 8080", which did not work
That would tend to indicate that you have a problem which has nothing to
do with Tomcat, but has to do with either
- the DNS (name resolving of "myServer" does not give the IP address of
your host)
OR
- something is blocking remote access to your host on port 8080
and this :
- I tried to install Tomcat 5.5.17 instead of Tomcat 5.5.29, and it worked !!
ie. the URLs http://myServer:8080/, http://myServer:8080/admin, etc... DO
respond !!
contradicts the above.
There is a puzzle there..
To find out if there is a problem with name resolution, do this :
on the same workstation where you tried the telnet command, enter
nslookup myServer
it should tell you the IP address of that host. If it does not, you
have a DNS issue.
To find out if there is a general network issue between the workstation
and the server, do
ping myServer
In general however, instead of saying "it did not work", try to be a bit
more specific. What exactly happens when you do
telnet myServer 8080
Don't be afraid to paste the original error message here, we're
polyglots. We even have mind-readers, but they appear to be on vacation
right now.
