Eclipse Tomcat server does not start

Question

Situation: I installed JRE 8, and configured Tomcat 8.5 on my Eclipse Neon.3 Release (4.6.3).

Problem : I added a project and the server console shows server start-up in 41935 ms. But the background process keeps showing "Starting...." This is shown in the ScreenShot below.

Later, the server stops because it times out. Please help me resolve this.

Answer 1

I don't know how this worked, but merely restarting the PC and cleaning Eclipse's Tomcat server solved this issue.

Also, if at any point of time there is a Security alert asking permission to allow Java to access Public or Private networks, check all the boxes.
