I am using Tomcat 5.0.16 under Linux Redhat9.
I am relatively new to Tomcat myself but I have found that it is easier to use the "ant" command from your command line prompt to install (ie. deploy) a Tomcat application.
In either case I use the command "ant dist" command to compile my application and prepare a .WAR distribution file. Next I simply use the ant command line "ant install" to deploy my application,
If you want to access the Manager application via your browser you could always enter a URL like the following :
It seems to me that the easier wau to go is to use Ant from your command line.

Subject: Deployment: admin vs manager
Should I deploy apps with the manager or admin
interface?
With the manager interface, it is easier, because I
can also specify my application.xml and therefor do
not have to configure my datasources manually. But,
using the manager interface, everytime I restart
Tomcat, I have to re-install the apps also - the
context is lost (the applications are not stored under
the webapps dir - the sysop wants everyone's apps in
his own homedir).
So which interface must I use for deployment and how
can I overcome the problem mentioned above?
Thanks
