administration webapp
Hello list. Just joined the list and I'm very new to Tomcat. I have a problem accessing the administration webapp and manager webapp links from the default Tomcat home page. The following is listed on the home page: NOTE: For security reasons, using the administration webapp is restricted to users with role admin. The manager webapp is restricted to users with role manager. Users are defined in $CATALINA_HOME/conf/tomcat-users.xml. This is the code from tomcat_users.xml : ?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'? tomcat-users role rolename=tomcat/ role rolename=role1/ user username=tomcat password=tomcat roles=tomcat/ user username=role1 password=tomcat roles=role1/ user username=both password=tomcat roles=tomcat,role1/ user username=express password=thames roles=manager,admin/ /tomcat-users And this is a snippet from server.xml : Realm className=org.apache.catalina.realm.MemoryRealm debug=99 digest=MD2 / I've looked at the manuals, etc. but it just does not seem to work - access always fails. Can anyone see the obvious mistake here.

RE: administration webapp
Hi, I actually tried that bit of code before - tried again just now and still does not work. Error generated is Invalid username or password. For me, it's pretty trivial. Download Tomcat .zip, expand. Edit conf/tomcat-users.xml with Notepad, add roles for manager/admin, and a user with those roles. Start Tomcat. And it works. I just did it again from scratch before typing this message. I'd be careful not to use international characters in your user name and role names. Don't modify the Realm definition initially either. But other than that, I don't know what else to check, this is a trivial thing usually ;) Yoav This e-mail, including any attachments, is a confidential business communication, and may contain information that is confidential, proprietary and/or privileged.

RE: administration webapp
Hi Andoni Yoav. Tried what Andoni recommended - no joy. From the documentation, inorder to access admin and manager webapp the user must have those respective roles. I've commented out the Realm code in server.xml, so effectively there no encyption on any passwords, just the password authentification from tomcat-users.xml. Tried Yoav's suggestion of defining rolenames for admin and manager - no joy. I agree with you Yoav - it is a trivial thing, but it's not working. A couple of questions: a) does Apache need to be restarted (aswell as tomcat) when any changes are made to tomcat-user.xml, etc.? b) which file can I look in to check $CATALINA_HOME?

In server.xml, I'm not exactly sure what MD2 is. I know what MD5 is, and it's clear that your passwords in tomcat-users.xml are clear text.

RE: administration webapp
Hi, I've commented out the Realm code in server.xml, so effectively there no encyption on any passwords, just the password authentification from tomcat-users.xml. What I said is not to comment out the Realm or modify it at all. The Realm and encryption are not one and the same. You must have a Realm to authenticate for the manager and admin webapps. a) does Apache need to be restarted (aswell as tomcat) when any changes are made to tomcat-user.xml, etc.? Generally no. But also generally, at the beginning you should turn off Apache and just work with Tomcat standalone, especially for basic issues like this. b) which file can I look in to check $CATALINA_HOME? It's a variable setting, it's not in a file. Check your environment variables to see if it's set specifically. If it's not set, Tomcat will deduce it as the parent directory above the bin directory.

Hi James. This is from the Digest documentation: The value for this attribute must be one of the digest algorithms supported by the java.security.MessageDigest class (SHA, MD2, or MD5). Tried it with MD5 and the digest param commented out - no joy. Yoav: bear with me, but how would I check the environment variable? Thanks. -Original Message- From: Montz, James C.

You need to look at tomcat-users.xml under /tomcat/conf You have to assign the role to a user .
