I'm very new to cloud hosting. Someone had setup an Ubuntu Linux server for me on AWS and I am trying to deploy my Servlet based application onto it, however, I'm having a problem with the use of Virtual URLs.
After I installed Tomcat10 I tried the server IP with the default port of 8080 and received the Tomcat landing page informing me that the setup was working and I got Tomcat installed and running successfully. Yay!
Now I took my Tomcat configuration from my Windows based servers that have been working for a decade now, copied them over to Tomcat on Ubuntu, and the URL is not connecting. The configuration is extremely simple. It changes the default port from 8080 to 80. And defines the virtual URL. See the config below.
Lastly, when I ping the Virtual URL the ping times out. When I mentioned that to the guy who setup the server for me he said it means nothing and that his setup is correct. I'm not a networking guru so have no idea what's going on. :(
Any and all ideas are absolutely welcome.

Adding the Tomcat log that John requested. I'm only adding lines that were problematic. Not the whole log file.

TC is trying to setup port 8005 as its "shutdown port".port 8005 is already linked to another process on the machine so it is not available.
You will find the value of 8005 in %TOMCAT_HOME%/conf/server.xml. Change it to any other value, eg 9005 and TC will start.
