Cannot Access Local Server (http://localhost:8080)
Did the Server Start?
Description
If the console window is still open, the expected message is:
Domain domain Started
where domain is the name of the default domain. This indicates that the default domain was started successfully.
If the console window is already closed, check for messages in the log file:
If startup was successful, the expected message is similar to that on the console, and appears at the end of the log file.
Was the Server Started at the Expected Port?
Description
The server might be running at a different port number than expected, either because it was intentionally installed there, or because another server was already running on the default port when the server was installed.
▼To Determine Which Port Number the Server Is Actually Using
1Examine the server's configuration file:
2Find the http-listener element.
3Inspect the value of the port attribute.
Be sure to enter the correct port number when invoking the server.
Note – The server's default port number is 8080, however, there are a number of ways in which the expected value can change:
■A different port number was specified during installation.
■A previous installation exists.
