Configure Tomcat for external access

Question

How I could access Tomcat via web, my PC being a server?

I already use the no-ip configured, the router is set to my micro, the firewall disabled, the .war is in the folder webapp, but can’t find the page.

Maybe it’s the configuration of server.xml, goes below:

Answer 1

There are two "Host" tags in your server.xml file

one pointing to "localhost" and the other to "monitor.ddns.net"

Just put a TAG and set the appBase to the right location, in case it would be "webapps".
