port 8080 not being listened

[nullp0inter]

so I installed and got tomcat working properly, except for the fact that I cannot connect to it. When i run nmap localhost, I only see port 80 and 22 listening. How do I open port 8080 to tomcat? could thins have anything to do with the fact that my tomcat installation does not have a startup.sh? i am starting it using service tomcat 5 start

error log:

You don't have java installed, tomcat requires java to run. You need to install java and point tomcat to it.

i do have java installed. actually i have two versions. i can switch between

java version "1.5.0"
gij (GNU libgcj) version 4.1.2 20070925 (Red Hat 4.1.2-33)

Copyright (C) 2006 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

and

java version "1.6.0_16"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_16-b01)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 14.2-b01, mixed mode, sharing)

But neither one works with tomcat currently.

Have you configured tomcat to use one of those?

[nullp0inter]

no, i read through tons of guides and such, however i did not specifically do that as i did not see specific directions. i would really appreciate it if you could just point me in the right direction. i need to set up tomcat so i can later install mondrian and its giving me such a headache.

i dont even think any global variables are set. $CATALINA_HOME and $JAVA_HOME do not echo anything.
