intellij tomcat configuration port numbers
intellij-idea, tomcat
Solution
Application's like eclipse and Intellij starts its own instance of tomcat. If you have your installed tomcat running in port 8080 you can tell these ide's to start another instance of tomcat in some other port no. Hope this helps..
Problem
When I configure a local tomcat server configuration in intellij, the following dialog is shown. You configure the start script and port numbers. Why does intellij require a port number if the tomcat's server.xml has port numbers specified? I know intellij reads the server config because it is picking up my certs file location.
