Mark -

        I have looked at the manager app how-to, and it doesn't describe
how connect from a script. I have this

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
    private static String stop =
"http://myhost:8080/manager/stop?path=/myapp";;

    public static void main(String[] args) {


        try {
            
            URL stopURL = new URL(stop);

            URLConnection cnxn = ustopURL.openConnection();

            cnxn.setRequestProperty("username", "user");
            cnxn.setRequestProperty("password", "password");

            cnxn.connect();

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

but am still getting 401. Do you have any suggestions? I have a complex
app that does a number of things before stopping and starting a web app,
and I don't want to have to cram the whole thing int Ant.

Any help appreciated;
