Ok here it goes... I am a real newbie to java and tomcat, so please forgive my ignorance.
I have tomcat 4.1.12 installed on a Mandrake 9.0 machine using the java sdk version 1.4.1.01. Everything seems to be running ok, tomcat starts and stops with out errors. I can access the tomcat server page on port 8080, but when I try to access the admin or the manager pages. When I try the password is not accepted. I have checked and modified the tomcat4-users.xml to no avail. When I try the admin page I enter the user name tomcat and the same for the password, I get this back. HTTP Status 403 - Access to the requested resource has been denied ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- type Status report message Access to the requested resource has been denied description Access to the specified resource (Access to the requested resource has been denied) has been forbidden. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- Apache Tomcat/4.1 I have tried several variations, creating new users that are the same as local users on this box. I have looked for more information but I haven't had any luck. Can someone point me in the right direction?
