we are trying to setup a web server in WebSphere. we installed the plugins and can brows out to port 8080. we can telnet but when trying to run snoop (http://localhost:8080/snoop) it downloads the snoop or snoop servlet file but wont display the snoop result. The snoop works when I run it on port 9080 but will not work on newly created server with port 8080. we enabled trace in websphere thinking it would give us little more details but that's not helping.
below is the log from debug.
