tomcat/manager works - tomcat/admin = 404.
Hi guys, I'm new to tomcat/jakarta and have just installed it (v4.1.18 - precompiled binaries from the site) on my Linux server. I replaced every occurence of localhost with my servername (which is resolvable) - and I have added a test-user with admin/manager roles. When I login, I can access the /manager - but when I try /admin - I get a 404 :( I hope you can help me with tracking down the problem. -- Regards, Klavs Klavsen --| This mail has been sent to you by: | Klavs Klavsen - Open Source Consultant [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://www.EnableIT.dk Get PGP key from www.keyserver.net - Key ID: 0x586D5BCA Fingerprint = 2873 188C 968E 600D D8F8 B8DA 3D3A 0B79 7E06 3C62 Open Source Software - Sometimes you get more than you paid for. -- unknown signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

Does that file get created? Admin.xml is no different than manager.xml. If /manager is working, /admin should work as well. My guess is there is something on the filesystem (permissions, etc) that is preventing Tomcat from deploying the admin app, though I could easily be wrong.

RE: tomcat/manager works - tomcat/admin = 404.
Yes, you can run it as a non-root user. That's what I do. Tomcat is pretty self-contained. Is there anything in the logs about the admin application? It's very strange to me that /manager would work, but /admin would not. They are both configured for auto-deploy. What happens if you move the contents of admin.xml into server.xml itself and restart Tomcat?

org.apache.catalina.startup.ContextConfig.tldScanJar(ContextConfig.java:930) is equal to: org/apache/catalina/startup/ContextConfig/tldScanJar(ContextConfig.java:930) ...but that class is probably in struts.jar...you'd probably need to download the source distro and look there.

Anyone else know exactly what's going on? the path is correct. as Root I can cd into it (and tomcat is still running as root). and struts.jar has 544 permissions, which should be fine? Thank you for helping me John, I hope we'll find the problem. It's weird that noone else has this problem, when I just installed tomcat-4.1.18 - and hasn't changed anything except for the localhost part. -- Regards, Klavs Klavsen --| This mail has been sent to you by: | Klavs Klavsen - Open Source Consultant [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://www.EnableIT.dk Get PGP key from www.keyserver.net - Key ID: 0x586D5BCA Fingerprint = 2873 188C 968E 600D D8F8 B8DA 3D3A 0B79 7E06 3C62 Open Source Software - Sometimes you get more than you paid for. -- unknown -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
