[SOLVED]

I had not changed the port number in config file.
Its working now

Thanks for your confirmation.

Hi, which of the configuration file did you edit?
I edited server.xml and still getting the same error.

The listening port is in:
/etc/tomcat/server.xml

what did you do then, Iā€™m stuck here also

Open that file with an editor and change the port number, I think you have to look for Connector port

thanks its working now
