Configuring Tomcat port

By default the tomcat binding ports are 8005, 8080 and 8009.

If you have other tomcat running on same server or other application like JBoss Application Server, probably these ports are already used. In this case you should change default ports.

Change tomcat ports

The port change must be done with the tomcat application stopped.

Edit $TOMCAT_HOME/confg/server.xml and look for all Tomcat port properties.
