Re: manager app permissions issue

[Jeanfrancois Arcand]

Which Tomcat version are you using (works for me with 4.1/5.0)? From the error you have provided, seems you are trying to get access to class ManagerServlet from one of your class. ManagerServlet class is package protected by Tomcat when running with the security manager (your case). If you want to use it (and open a possible SECURITY hole), add this to your catalina.policy:

permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "accessClassInPackage.org.apache.catalina.servlets.";

At your own risk :-)

Hello,

I'm trying to use the manager app but recieve the following error:

java.lang.SecurityException: Servlet of class org.apache.catalina.servlets.ManagerServlet is privileged and cannot be loaded by this web application

Did some looking around and the only thing I can come up with is changing the catalina.policy file. So I added:

grant codeBase "file:${catalina.home}/webapps/manager/-" {
permission java.security.AllPermission; };

to catalina.policy, but that did not fix it.

Has anyone seen this before and no what the problem is?


Thanks,

David Durham
