Isn’t there something wrong with the startscript?

When I start fedora it does start, but when I run “service fedora status” it returns that it is stopped though it is not.

I would like to develop servlet program in fedora17 in which jdk7 is installed. It is asking me to set the classpath to servlet-api.jar. But i don’t know the way to set. Please can anyone help me?

Abhishek,

Thank you for your prompt response. That didn’t strike my mind, I did enable port 80 on the firewall but didn’t realize I have to enable port 8080 also. That worked. Thanks once again.

Prasad.

Hi Prasad,
This means that fedora is running on the machine (which is verified by being able to open the link on the local machine). There might be various reasons for not being able to open the link on client machines. Some of the reasons and their solution are as below:
1. The firewall (iptables) might be blocking access to the 8080 port. To resolve this, please execute on terminal “sudo iptables -I INPUT -p tcp –dport 8080 -j ACCEPT”. If this solves your problem, you might want to save this rule (as it will be discarded on reboot) by executing “sudo service iptables save”.
2. There might be problem with your network and the packets originating from the client might be unable to reach fedora server. Please confirm that the network is working by pinging the server (command: ping ).

Hope this helps.

This all works fine on the linux box where the fedora was installed i.e. when I type http://localhost:8080/fedora or http://ipaddress:8080/fedora. But when I try to open the url from a client machine like windows xp, in firefox this is what I get
The server at ipaddress is taking too long to respond.

I am not sure where I went wrong. I will appreciate your help on resolving this issue.

Thanks,
Prasad

This is really an excellent work.
I can continue with my research on building a custom solution for fedora.
