disabling port number 80 (apache server)

807600Jun 28 2007 — edited Jun 29 2007
Hi ,

I have installed apache - tomcat in my linux machine (debian O/S). As per my knowledge when a http request comes apache server handles it at port 80 if the request is for static page,otherwise forwards the request to tomcat.
I want to disable port 80 or apache server (not uninstalling)and therefore all the requests should go to tomcat server at port 8080.
ex: http://IPADDRESS shouldn't work and http://IPADDRESS:8080 should work.

Is this possible.? kindly suggest me what configuration changes do i have to do to disable apache at port 80 such that all requests should go to tomcat at 8080.

Thanks,
Sai
