Tomcat admin link fails to resolve

[Pat Fleming]

Hi All,

I've installed v1.7.7 of xampp on my windows XP SP2 laptop and the installation seems OK. All the processes show a running state in the XAMPP Control Panel. However, I can't resolve the following link on the "AJP13 Proxy + Apache Tomcat (J2EE Container)" page:

http://127.0.0.1:8080/manager/status


I get the following error.

Object not found!
The requested URL was not found on this server. The link on the referring page seems to be wrong or outdated. Please inform the author of that page about the error.

If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.


Error 404


All other links in the XAMPP GUI withinn my browser resolve successfully. I guess there's some config that I'm missing but I'm not sure what it is.Any idea's?

Thanks
Pat

Hello Pat.

You could use the version 3 control panel found in the xampp installation folder:
xampp-control-3-beta.exe

Stop all XAMPP components and remove the ticks in the Svc check boxes then click on Exit in the older 2.5 version before starting this version 3 control panel.


Better still, the latest and greatest Control Panel Version 3 download post is linked below my signature.

Simply extract all the files from the CPv3 folder in to the xampp installation folder and overwrite when asked - do not extract the CPv3 folder complete, only extract it's content.

Then right click the xampp-control-3-beta10.exe file to create a shortcut to the desktop for example, for easier access.

Make sure that you have exited all other control panel versions before starting this latest version.

This version 3 (XCPv3) control panel has many new features including a much more detailed log window and a button to easily access the log files to help with troubleshooting start and running issues.

If you use the latest XCPv3 then it may also help troubleshoot your Tomcat issue and allows for starting Tomcat usually without issues.

Also read the \xampp\apache\logs\error.log file as it may also hold some clues, as browser error messages are canned responses and don't really give you the real details that is causing the error.

Best wishes.

Hi Sharley,

Thanks for your help.

I've installed the xampp-control-3-beta10.exe as you suggested but when when I check the mysql tickbox on the new GUI I get the following message, though I did untick id on the old GUI and was prompted to uninstall the service, which I did:

17:02:58 [mysql] Service was NOT (un)installed!

The mysql service consequently doesn't start.
I also get the following in the log on the GUI when I check the Tomcat tickbox on the new GUI:

17:03:54 [tomcat] Tomcat Started/Stopped with errors, return code: 1
17:03:54 [tomcat] Make sure you have Java JDK or JRE installed and the required ports are free

Any idea's what they mean and where to start looking to solve these issues? The Tomcat issue I can have an attempt at fixing but I'll need help with the mysql issue.

Thanks
Pat

[Sharley]

For your mysql issue click on the XAMPP-Shell button in the XCP3 and type:

Code: Select all

sc delete mysql

Then hit Enter.

If the mysql service is in the registry then the above command will delete it and allow you to install the service again by clicking on the red X so it gives a green tick, hopefully.

You may have to download and install the latest Java Runtime Environment to fix the Tomcat issue.

Good luck.

[Pat Fleming]

Hi Sharley,

Tried as you suggested via the shell:

# sc delete mysql
[SC] OpenService FAILED 1060:

The specified service does not exist as an installed service.

I still get the same message when I check the mysql tickbox:

11:44:10 [mysql] Installing service...
11:44:13 [mysql] Service was NOT (un)installed!

I guess I need to set the Java environment variables for Tomcat to work. Is there Tomcat config files that these can be set in?

Thanks
Pat

[Sharley]

Try a reboot as in XP that sometimes sorts out strange issues.

If after rebooting you still have the problems especially with MySQL then I suggest you uninstall and then reinstall using the zip file method following the instructions in this post:
viewtopic.php?p=179699#p179699

It has been known that the installer used in XAMPP could give issues for some Windows installations.

In most XAMPP installs Tomcat will find the JRE or JDK automagically - this may also be fixed with a zip method install.

Best wishes.

If you still encounter Tomcat issues after reinstalling with the above suggested method, I would need to see the Tomcat output to be able to give you further direction.

1. Open a command prompt (Start > Run > cmd)
2. Change to the XAMPP directory (e.g. cd C:\xampp)
3. Run the Catalina_Start.bat
4. Click the upper-left corner of the CMD window to open a menu
5. Go to the Edit submenu and "Select All"
6. Go back to the same Edit submenu and Copy
7. Paste the contents of that window between Code tags here

Hi ,

This is what happens when I start up Tomcat from the command line. It looks to me like the 8080 port, which I assume is what Tomcat is configured to listen on, is already being used, and it is, by Apache. Should I have tomcat listen on another port? Is it set in the server.xml config file?

E:\Program Files\xampp\tomcat>cd E:\program files\xampp\Tomcat\conf

[hackattack142]

By default, tomcat requires ports 8080, 8005, and 8009 to be free and they can be changed in the server.xml file.

Regarding your mysql issue, does it work when not installed as a service?
Are you getting any errors in your /xampp/mysql/data/mysql_error.log?

As a side note, it is generally not good to put xampp in a folder that has spaces in the path as this could cause issues

[Pat Fleming]

Hi,

Thanks for all your support. The MySQL issue is solved, thanks.

I've changed the default Tomcat ports and catalina_start.bat now seems to get past the issue to do with that, but it still fails to start (see code below):

Is this because of the space in the pathname to the executable, as you suggest?

I cannot say that I have seen that error before but doing some quick poking around on Google, it looks like you should check the XML files in your /xampp/tomcat/conf folder and make sure there are no leading spaces at the top of the files.

Hi,

There was indeed a leading space in one of the config files which I've removed.

Tomcat is now definitely running and I've made a change to the tomcat-users.xml to allow admin access to:

http://127.0.0.1:8090/manager/html

which successfully resolves in the browser.

It doesn't look, however, as if Tomcat is running from the GUI. Can this be remedied or is it supposed to be like this? The 'Start' button works (it starts Tomcat) but doesn't change to 'Stop' like the Apache button when its been started This is the same if Tomcat is started either via the GUI, or win-services or from the command using the catalina start batch file.

Thanks again for your inspiration and support.
Pat

1. Are you using the Control Panel v3.0.11?

2. If yes, you need to click the 'Config' button in the far upper right corner, click the 'Service and Port Settings' button, and change the ports to match your current setup, then click the 'Save' buttons and see if that fixes the issue.

Thanks, hackattack142, I had a poke about in the GUI yesterday as soon as I'd posted and got to where you've just suggested and all looks good now.

There are however a couple of links on this page which are wrong because I've configured Tomcat to listen on port 8090, :

http://127.0.0.1:8080/xampp/

These are the links on this page, how can I change them?

Tomcat standalone (without ajp13): http://127.0.0.1:8080/
Tomcat Manager (without ajp13): http://127.0.0.1:8080/manager/status


Thanks again,
Pat

If you want to edit the page, you need to edit the source code of that page which i believe is /xampp/htdocs/xampp/java.php
