When installing SAP Archive Link on a newly installed Sles15 Server, it says the Tomcat Web Service Port is already in use. Tried port 80 and 8088, but all are in use.


ss -lnp | grep 8080 gives nothing.
 

If I use port 9099 it is going further with the installation. 
Anyone any idea?

thanks in advance.

Could be in use by an other web related service.

Documentation quote:

"By default, the Tomcat Web Service uses port number 8080. If the port number is used by other applications, you must select another port number."

Depending on your environment/firewall you can use any other port.
