400 Bad Request

[ben2.0]

Hello,

I recently made a fresh install of Queuemetrics 1.5.4 on debian following the guide at ast-recipies.  I used tomcat 5.5 which uses port 8180 instead of 8080.  Now when I go to http://myserver:8180 I get nothing.  No error message but just a blank page.  If I were to guess I'd say might have wrong permissions or put it in the wrong web root.  I looked through the tomcat configs and couldn't find where it was serving from.   I did a dump and a traffic and saw:

Any help would greatly be appreciated.

This is strange - Tomcat usually ships with a welcome page installed as a root package. is it present/available? also look for the contents of its webapps directory and try those urls as well...

If tomcat5.5 serves out of the webapps folder then, i'm missing the default page or something.  I didn't know which webapps directory was used so I put queuemetrics in  both of them.  If an answer isn't obvious then I might just downgrade to tomcat 5.0 and see if that solves, at least a few of my problems.  I 755ed the queuemetrics directories but as you can see they're not owned by tomcat..

# ls -l `find / | egrep 'webapps$'`

Just to set things up, run everything as root while you are installing.
