Maybe opening the port will help

If you use Windows you can run this bat file to open the port:

@echo off
set port=8080
netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="Port%port%" protocol="TCP" localport=%port% action=allow dir=IN
echo %port% port opened
pause

To close the port:

@echo off
set port=8080
netsh advfirewall firewall delete rule name="Port%port%"
echo %port% port closed
pause

P.S. Didn't noticed that Jun already answered about firewall rule.

Just Enable Firewall port for tomcat on your windows machine.

Goto Windows Firewall->Advanced Settings->Inbound Rules.

In the Right side click on New Rule->Then select Port from the dialog box and Next->Then type port "8080" (As by default Tomcat run on this port) and Next->Then select "Allow the connection"->Next->Give a Name ->Finish.
