How to see tomcat is running or not

Question

Which command is used to find tomcat is running or not in windows?

How do we know if JVM crashes suddenly?

After googling I posted it, I am not able to find expected result.

Solution 1

open http://localhost:8080/ in browser, if you get tomcat home page. it means tomcat is running

Solution 2

open your browser,check whether Tomcat homepage is visible by below command.

http://ipaddress:portnumber

also check this
