Re: Tomcat Administration problem
In addition to the advice below, did you restart Tomcat after updating tomcat-users.xml? Last I knew this file wasn't reparsed after startup. Could be wrong on that though. If you want the authentication to be updateable while tomcat is running, use a database realm. Docs should be available in server.xml. --David Anto Paul wrote: On 5/2/05, Nir Tayeb [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I will try to explain, When I enter the default web app ($CATALINA_HOME/webapps/ROOT/index.jsp) by typing 127.0.0.1:8080 in the address-bar.

Re: Tomcat Administration problem
It works :-D but after every edit I restarted the server, it is very strange :-S Thank you very much :-) On 5/2/05, David Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: In addition to the advice below, did you restart Tomcat after updating tomcat-users.xml?

Re: Tomcat Administration problem
Thank you, but the solution you offered is not helpful to me. I have created a user with a role of manager, and I login with his. but yet, the server prompt me for a username and password. this is the user definition code: user username=nir password=123456 roles=manager/ thanks, nir :-) On 4/30/05, Steve Ochani [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Date sent: Sat, 30 Apr 2005 02:19:43 +0300 From: Nir Tayeb [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject:Tomcat Administration problem To: tomcat-user@jakarta.apache.org Send reply to: Tomcat Users List tomcat-user@jakarta.apache.org Send reply to: Nir Tayeb [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hello, I am running a Tomcat 5.5.9 server on Ubuntu 5.04 machine.
