As suggested I have installed the latest version(5.5.33) of Tomcat 5.5.x. After
installing I have typed in the browser 'http://localhost' to check if the
tomcat is installed properly. The home page is displayed indicating that the
installation is fine. Then I typed in ip address of the machine
'http://10.4.2.10' and page not found page is displayed. This is exactly the
same problem why we have downgraded the version. There are no changes or
customizations made to the installation. It was default installation and the
only change is to use port 80 instead of 8080.
The below is the server.xml file.

That sounds like a network misconfiguration issue or a misconfiguration within
Tomcat's server.xml, not a Tomcat problem per se.
1) download the latest version of Tomcat 5.5 and install it, even if it appears
not to work
2) Note the exact problem carefully (including logfile message if any)
3) Remove all comments and sensitive information from the server.xml file, and
copy and paste it in your next message.
Repeat : copy and paste, do not send it as an attachment; the list strips most
attachmnts.
The point : better to use a known "best version" of Tomcat, and fix what
appears to be a simple misconfiguration, rather than spending a lot of time
looking for missing DLLs or the like.
