I am new in Linux. I have started solr search engine  on locallhost:8080. when i am working on my PC, I can check it on internet browser by typing http://localhost:8080/solr and i can see its main page. now i have started it on server and access it by Bitvise ssh client. since i don't have any internet browser there(just terminal). so how can i  check that my program is started right? how can i see its main page and work with it?
how to check that my program is listening to port?
linux;ssh
You can install / use lynx or w3m which are both terminal browsers.wget http://localhost:8080/solr will grab the page too. That will save the data to a file. You can try:netstat -an | grep 8080Or if netstat is deprecated (as noted by Centimane, see comment below) you should be able to use:ss -an | grep 8080You can use telnet. Some options are different between OS versions, but something like the following should work:telnet localhost 8080GET /solr HTTP/1.1host: localhost<enter>This will dump the HTML / page to console.There is often a short timeout between GET and host:, so you may have to type quick :]
