Re: How to disable Tomcat Admin directory
Ok. This only makes sense if you have a connector like mod_jk or the isapi_redirector mapping contexts from Apache or IIS back to tomcat. In that case, review your config and unmount the tomcat admin context from your front-end web server. --David Mark, The \conf\catalina\localhost directory is empty and there isn't an admin folder at \server\webapps. The admin interface is not installed, I'm only trying to get Tomcat to stop responding when I hit the WEB_ROOT/admin folder from a web browser. The reason being Tomcat is keeping users from getting to the real /admin folder on our server. Thanks for your help.

Re: How to disable Tomcat Admin directory
Mark, I found and deleted the admin folder you mentioned. However, I'm still not getting the real admin folder on my web server. Tomcat is still responding but with a 404 - The requested resource (/admin/) is not available. I even tried killing the entire webapps\ROOT folder, but that didn't help either. Thanks again for your help on this. [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jarrod Holder wrote: Mark, The \conf\catalina\localhost directory is empty and there isn't an admin folder at \server\webapps.

How to disable Tomcat Admin directory
We have just installed Novell's GroupWise WebAccess 7 on our server. This new version uses Tomcat 5.5 to provide service to our users. However, Tomcat tries to listen on WEB_ROOT/admin for a non existent admin interface. The problem is our main website uses the /admin directory for it's portal admin files. Therefore, we can no longer access our admin files for our portal. How can we have Tomcat no longer listen for requests to the /admin directory? Thank you.

Jarrold, The latest versions of Tomcat do not include the admin webapp by default. The /admin page displays: Tomcat's administration web application is no longer installed by default.

Re: How to disable Tomcat Admin directory
Bruno, Correct, we are getting the error you mention below. However, we need to have Tomcat not respond to any request to the /admin directory at all. In other words, if we go to the /admin directory, we get the actual /admin directory on our web server rather than Tomcat. Hope that better explains our problem. I made the change you mentioned to the server.xml file (actually, I made a backup of the file then removed the section in question entirely). Yet I still get the Tomcat's administration web application... error. One other point I should have mentioned, This is running on W2K server with IIS. Thank you for your help.
