Hi, We use the Manager webapp all the time (via its HTML interface, although some people prefer the Ant tasks), without significant issues.
Of course, the usual advice of trying the latest stable version (5.0.28 at this time) applies: specifically in this case, there have been numerous bug fixes relevant to the stability and operation of the Manager webapp between 5.0.18 and 5.0.28. The approach of running applications on separate Tomcat instances also should never be discounted. It has a high operational value, although of course at an increased maintenance cost. We do this for mission-critical applications.
