How to set up local web server for Rad-7 testing
I have a java / jsp web application that I maintain, but infrequently. I just tried to make a small change but can't get the local server started, it's been a while but everything worked fine in the last round of changes.
PC has since been upgraded to Windows-7 which caused a fair amount of issues, which I've been able to correct one by one. For example, Rad-7 had to be re-installed and that seems ok - I can open the application from my workspace, and that seems ok. Then I got source code control connected to Dimensions, etc. But now trying to start the server and it's not opening, see log file.
- The log file says "Server server1 open for e-business", but later says "Conflict detected on port 8881. Likely causes: a) An instance of the server server1 is already running b) some other process is using port 8881" (unlikely that another server is running)
The help says to open the Administrative Console, but I'm not sure how to do that.

mrcoffee,
sorry for the delay.
>>Get a cmd window and type netstat -a, and look for 8881
- did that, don't see 8881, see attached.
>>It sounds as if RAD7 was already started when you tried to start it again.
- I don't think so, after upgrading to W-7, then I had Rad-7 installed, so I doubt anything was running.
>>Are you asking how to get to the RAD7 Administrative Console?
- yes, but I thought that was done within RAD-7 itself . . . I don't understand how a URL has the Admin console. I tried the link above and those in the EE post you referenced, none of them work.
>>it sounds as if you are porting a webapp within RAD7 to Windows 7.
- not exactly sure what you are asking about porting the app . . . I have a web application, then upgraded to W-7 and re-installed Rad-7, shouldn't it work if Rad-7 is properly installed ?
The issue is my webserver won't load, so my take is the Rad-7 installation isn't in order, wouldn't this be a separate issue from porting the app ?
Thank you.

sorry for the delay. I will google the port conflict messages as you suggest. This is low-priority for me, but I still need to resolve it.

this project is on hold for me, so I won't be able to pursue for a while. I apologize for letting this hang so long.
