It is possible to bind and connect to localhost:8080 at the same time - application server will probably compete with some other software on the port

Should I be able to start Tomcat solely within IntelliJ and get the default Tomcat page to be displayed in Safari?

Right now I can only get the result on my MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2016, Four Thunderbolt 3 Ports) running running 10.13.3 (17D102), if I start Tomcat v9.0.5 from terminal first using (/Library/Tomcat/bin/startup.sh) and then in IntelliJ (Ultimate 2017.3) I get message "It is possible to bind and connect to localhost:8080 at the same time - application server will probably compete with some other software on the port". Based on other posting in this forum that makes sense because Tomcat is already running. At the end of this process Safari (Version 11.0.3 (13604.5.6)) opens and the default Tomcat page is displayed...

However, if I do not start the server outside IntelliJ first and only start it from inside IntelliJ, I do not get message "It is possible to bind and connect to localhost:8080 at the same time - application server will probably compete with some other software on the port".

/Library/Tomcat/bin/catalina.sh run

Hi, could you please provide a project example, I was not able to reproduce the problem with default tomcat project.

I think I have done what you requested. I created a project from scratch, verified it behaves as I described in my initial post and then shared it on GitHub. https://github.com/bravogolfgolf/servlets_and_jsp. Let me know if you need something else. Thanks for your help.

Yes, by default IntelliJ IDEA doesn't deploy the default web applications installed on Tomcat, it deploys only the web app you are developing and configured per https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/developing-a-java-ee-application.html.

If you want the default web apps to be deployed as well, you have to enable this option:

I was so hopeful that was going to work as expected, but alas it did not resolve my issue. I still get the 404. However, when editing the configuration to check the deploy application box I noticed I have no artifacts configured warning. I'm new to all of this. Should I be able to run this configuration as it is above and expect to get the Tomcat default page? If yes, do you have any other suggestions? If no, how would I get to the default page so I can reference the documentation (i.e. is the another url besides http://localhost:8080 I could use to navigate to default tomcat page)?

I've verified that this configuration works fine and will deploy the default Tomcat applications and http://localhost:8080/ will open the standard Tomcat page:

You may need to wait until the default apps start up and then try to refresh the page, check the log in the Run panel:

Once you see the webapps\ROOT] has finished in [14] ms line, you should be able to access http://localhost:8080/.

Patience is a virtue. You were right. I just had to wait. Thanks.
