I'd highly recommend reading the documentation for Tomcat :-) In order to let you restart the app, Tomcat is going to force you to authenticate yourself. If authentication weren't required, anyone could reload it -- and I don't think you'd want that!
I'm not going to go into details about Tomcat Realms etc - read the manual. I will say that you need a user in your realm that has the role "admin". This is the user you should sign on as. There is no such user defined in the default realm (MemoryRealm - controlled by the file $CATALINA_HOME/conf/tomcat-users.xml) Tomcat ships configured to use. It's very easy to add one though. If you are still using that realm, add a line like: <user name="administrator" password="3y3-lik3-r36w006" roles="admin" /> ... and then, when prompted, enter those credentials. You'll have to restart Tomcat to get the user loaded (I believe). It's bed-time for me! Good luck! caowei wrote: >hi, > > more: when i use http://localhost:8080/manager/reload?path=/test to restart my >application,servletContext and session missed!and i must input my username/password >to get the manager role authorization in tomcat. > >i don't want these.how to deal with these problem? > >Regards, > >badi > -- Eddie Bush -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
