You can download the latest and greatest version of Tomcat, unzip it and run
the batch file to start it up. That's all to it.

Aha! Even the autherr.html page seems to be protected by the form-based
security. When I try to open autherr.html by the url,
http://127.0.0.1:8080/MyFirst/autherr.html, I get the login page!

you need to add a user with the manager role to the tomcat-users.xml file.

 

Then use this login and you will be able to access the admin app.

Webapps Folder

Hello:

 

I am new to Tomcat and so forgive me if this question comes across as very
elementary.

 

I see that there are two webapps folders, one under Jakarta_HOME\Server and
one under JAKARTA_HOME. The Manager Application is installed under
Jakarta_HOME\Server\webapps while other applications are installed under
JAKARTA_HOME\webapps.

 

Why is this distinction being made?

The admin application is to be installed in the Jakarta_Home/Server/webapps
directory, right?

The reason I am asking you this is after installing it there, it is not
listed in the Applications list on the Tomcat Manager application and if I
do http://127.0.0.1:8080/admin/; I get the response,  Tomcat's
administration web application is no longer installed by default. Download
and install the admin package to use it.

Hi,
We are trying to distinguish those webapps which are tightly coupled
with the Tomcat server and its implementation from normal user webapps.
For all intents and purposes, users should ignore server/webapps and
never touch it.  Put all your apps and do your development in
$CATALINA_HOME/webapps or another appBase of your choosing if you have a
custom Host, but not server/webapps.

Hi,
You download the compat package from the same place you download your
Tomcat distribution (http://jakarta.apache.org/site/binindex.cgi).  It's
a .zip or .tar.gz distro, take your pick.  Then it's as RUNNING.txt
says:

===
Running Tomcat With J2SE Version 1.4 or 1.3
===

(1) Obtain the compat package:

(1.1) Download the compat package from the binary download site:
  http://jakarta.apache.org/site/binindex.cgi

  * Or build this package yourself from the source code: see 
BUILDING.txt in this directory.

(2) Unzip the package in $CATALINA_HOME.  It will place the XML
parser APIs and Xerces implementation in the common/endorsed
directory, and the JMX API jar (jmx.jar from Sun) in the bin
directory.

(3) Follow the same directions for starting and stopping the
server as if you were using J2SE 5.0.
