I am using Netbeans (Build 201609300101) on Mac OS X version 10.12.3 running on x86_64; UTF-8; en_US (nb) with 1.8.0_65; Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 25.65-b01 When I try to run any project using Tomcat as a webserver then it does not startup. Though in console it shows in log that "org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina.start Server startup in 703 ms" but netbeans does not understand this and still keeps on waiting for tomcat and ultimately times out and shows tomcat startup fails. Even if I try to run tomcat directly from services menu of netbeans then also it keeps waiting for tomcat and ultimately shows error that tomcat startup failed. I was facing this issue in Netbeans 8.1 but I find out this bug is fixed in 8.2 but it is still persistent here. On Windows machine it works perfectly fine, don't know what is the issue with OSX. I am using Tomcat 8.5.12
I removed Netbeans 8.2 completely and reinstalled. Now it is working fine
