I cannot start ofbiz on my laptop (localhost)

[jondon1928]

I went through all instructions couple of times but when I go localhost:8442/accounting I get a message that local host refused to connect.

I have Java installed and system variables added but I cannot have this right.

I am new to ofbiz but I read somewhere that tomcat is embedded.

Do I need Tomcat on my laptop? If so, I have an Apache server installed on my Windows 8.1.
When I try to run Tomcat I get a message:
"Make sure you have Java JDK or JRE installed and the required ports are free"

Are these two, that is, ofbiz and Apache Server are  in conflict?

I would really appreciate your help.

P.S. I simply want to install ofbiz to play with it and check its functionality.

Hi,

Which OFBiz version do you use?
OFBiz on localhost runs on the https port 8443 (not 8442) for backoffice
applications and 8080 (http) for eCommerce, so make sure that the 8443 port
is not used by other processes.


Kind Regards,
Giulio

Hi Nges,

Please try with jdk 1.8, ofbiz not compatible with JDK 11.


Thanks & Regards

Hello Jondon,

Yes, OFBiz has embedded tomcat  So no need to install an Apache server. You
just need to check out the code, load the data and start using it.

As said by Nges, the URL you have mentioned in the wrong if you haven't
altered any port configuration settings in your setup or gradle command.
Please try to use the following URL:

https://localhost:8443/accounting/control/main

I have tested it on trunk and version 16. It works well for me.

Hope this helps.

Thanks and Regards
