This is my first foray into the world of the Tomcat manager app. Any help is appreciated.
I've been using this guide: http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/manager-howto.html I've modified conf/tomcat-users.xml: I added a new role named "manager", as I wasn't clear on whether the existing role of "tomcat" was equal to "manager" or not. I also added a new user named "admin" like so: <?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?> <tomcat-users> <role rolename="tomcat"/> <role rolename="role1"/> <role rolename="manager"/> <user username="tomcat" password="tomcat" roles="tomcat"/> <user username="role1" password="tomcat" roles="role1"/> <user username="both" password="tomcat" roles="tomcat,role1"/> <user username="admin" password="myPassWord" roles="manager"/> </tomcat-users> When I access http://some.host.name:8080/manager, I get prompted with a standard auth request pop-up. I type in the username and password of the "admin" user. The result is a blank white page and an error message that says "FAIL - Unknown command /". According to the guide, I can deploy the manager app simply by having manager.xml in the appBase for my Host. The Host appBase is "webapps" which is the default. There is a manager.xml file in CATALINA_HOME/webapps, it's the one that came with the install package. Can anyone tell me what I am missing? Do I have tomcat-users.xml screwed up? In the default tomcat-users.xml, is the "tomcat" role = "manager" role as mentioned in the docs?
