Tomcat – Manage multiple ports with Apache Tomcat

apache-2.2httpporttomcaturi

I already switched my default port from 8080 to 80, but here's a problem: I need to also be able to manage port 8000, too.
Current ports are: 8080, 80. How do I map a new port (8000) to a new webapp?

You can setup Tomcat so that it will listen on multiple ports, without having to setup 2 instances, simply edit the conf/server.xml configuration file and add a new connector for the port you want. For example if you have a connector like that:

<Connector port="80" protocol="HTTP/1.1" 
       connectionTimeout="20000" 
       redirectPort="8443" 
       URIEncoding="UTF-8" />

Add this to that file as well:

<Connector port="8000" protocol="HTTP/1.1" 
       connectionTimeout="20000" 
       redirectPort="8443" 
       URIEncoding="UTF-8" />

Make sure it's redirected to the appropriate location.
