I just recently tried to start a web application on tomcat, and it didn't work. Big surprise, since i am relatively new to tomcat.
Anyways, the odd thing is that the servlet works when I am on the server and use the url: http://localhost:8080/IntervieweeSearch/Search, but not when I use the url: http://<my domain>:8080/IntervieweeSearch/Search from another computer.
The servlet is set up so that the Search application is in its own separate directory - Tomcat5.5/webapps/IntervieweeSearch/ - of course, all the normal parts of an application are in that folder; the web.xml is in the WEB-INF folder and the needed classes and jars are in their specified folder. I'm pretty sure it's all set up correctly, as it runs on the domain localhost:8080.
I have checked; in the setup file, tomcat is connected to port 8080.
It seems that the only possibility for the malfunction is that the server settings are such that the server does not listen to port 8080, or something on those lines. So how can I get port 8080 open? My server is a "Microsoft 2000 ISA Proxy Server," or so the administrator tells me.
