Install tomcat 8.0.24 on ubuntu 14.04

Question

I follow the steps mainly from https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-apache-tomcat-8-on-ubuntu-14-04

Let me repeat the steps I took:

• I logged in as an ubuntu user
• sudo apt-get install tomcat8
• sudo groupadd tomcat
• sudo useradd -s /bin/false -g tomcat -d /opt/tomcat tomcat
• cd ~
• wget http://apache.mirrors.ionfish.org/tomcat/tomcat-8/v8.0.24/bin/apache-tomcat-8.0.24.tar.gz
• sudo mkdir /opt/tomcat
• sudo tar xvf apache-tomcat-8*tar.gz -C /opt/tomcat --strip-components=1
• cd /opt/tomcat
• sudo chgrp -R tomcat conf
• sudo chmod g+rwx conf
• sudo chmod g+r conf/*
• sudo chown -R tomcat work/ temp/ logs/
• sudo update-alternatives --config java and select /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java
• sudo nano /etc/init/tomcat.conf

and scored

description "Tomcat Server"

  start on runlevel [2345]
  stop on runlevel [!2345]
  respawn
  respawn limit 10 5

  setuid tomcat
  setgid tomcat

  env JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre
  env CATALINA_HOME=/opt/tomcat

  # Modify these options as needed
  env JAVA_OPTS="-Djava.awt.headless=true -Djava.security.egd=file:/dev/./urandom"
  env CATALINA_OPTS="-Xms512M -Xmx1024M -server -XX:+UseParallelGC"

  exec $CATALINA_HOME/bin/catalina.sh run

  # cleanup temp directory after stop
  post-stop script
    rm -rf $CATALINA_HOME/temp/*
  end script

16. sudo initctl reload-configuration
17. sudo initctl start tomcat

that leads to

tomcat start/running, process 14674

But when I go to http: // [ip-address]: 8080 , nothing happens.

Please inform.

UPDATE

One comment below asked me to look at server.xml inside the root folder of the tomcat root.

I reproduced the following files:

Which proves the absence of such a file inside / opt / tomcat / bin

I also added some instructions from server.xml below, which is inside /opt/tomcat/conf

<Connector port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1"
               connectionTimeout="20000"
               redirectPort="8443" />

<Connector port="8009" protocol="AJP/1.3" redirectPort="8443" />
<Server port="8005" shutdown="SHUTDOWN">

Answer 1

Answer 4

http://serverip:8080 http://localhost:8080

.

Answer 5

Open Server.xmland find <Connector port="9090" protocol="HTTP/1.1", so this is your port number.

Answer 6

You should write:
cd / opt / tomcat / bin

and after:

sudo bash startup.sh

and everything's good!!! http: // serverip: 8080

NOTE. If you put port 9090, then PLACE IN YOUR BROWSER http: // serverip: 9090
