--- Comment #2 from BJ Chippindale <bjc...@computer.org> --- As I expected, using the documented roles only does work properly. <role rolename="manager-gui"/> <role rolename="manager-script"/> <role rolename="manager-xml"/> <role rolename="manager-status"/> <role rolename="tomcat"/> <role rolename="role1"/> <user username="tomcat" password="tomcat" roles="tomcat"/> <user username="both" password="tomcat" roles="tomcat,role1"/> <user username="role1" password="tomcat" roles="role1"/> <user username="admin" password="tomcat" roles="manager-gui,manager-status"/> The issue is solely with the ability to access the file in the first instance, with the pathname in server.xml not being correct in some way. This is almost sure to be linux version, Java version, user or shell dependent, as it would not have been "incorrect" as written. The fact that it did not follow links surprises and suggests that it has to do with the identity starting tomcat. If root it may not behave... but as an ordinary user it did not start. Some sort of discussion of this (if it is the case) would be a useful hint to someone looking at the document but not able to reach the manager page. respectfully BJ -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
