Starting Tomcatv6.0 Server at localhost has encoutered a problem, Port 80 required by Tomcat v6.0 server at localhost already in use. the server may already running in another process, or a system process may be using the port,To start this server you will need to stop the other process or change the port number(s)


1. Go to server tab in your eclipse. If you cant see it you can have it through window->show view->servers
2. double click on the tomcat server and you will be directed to page for tomcat configuration.

4. Change the HTTP/1.1 from 80 –  to new one like 9181.
