James,
Thanks for that. That's done the trick. Dunno why there was not a valid
admin.xml file as there is on the Windows install.
However, I still have a problem. I'd expect to see a tree a bit like
this when I get into the admin application:
Tomcat Server
Service (Catalina)
Host (localhost)
Context (/)
Context (/admin)
Context (/manager)
Etc....
But I just see as far down as Service(Catalina).
Any clues.
TIA
Steve.

Bare with me, I usually work with Tomcat 4.5 on Linux. My first stab at
Tomcat 5.5 is on Windows.
Anyway, was looking at the files for the tar.gz release of the admin
tools.
Verify that you do indeed have a conf\Catalina\localhost\admin.xml
(double check file permissions as well) This is what re-maps requests
for /admin to \server\webapps\admin.
To me, it does not appear to have a proper context path specified?
Is the context mapping assumed? Based on the name of the file?
If required? Modify conf\Catalina\localhost\admin.xml with a path, like
so;
<Context docBase="${catalina.home}/server/webapps/admin" path="/admin"
privileged="true" antiResourceLocking="false"
antiJARLocking="false">
</Context>
This should override the generic page in \webapps\ROOT\admin\

James,
I'm on RedHat Linux V9. Everything (tomcat and the admin package) is
installed in the jakarta-tomcat-5.5.4 directory.
Even if I undeploy the admin application and then deploy it specifying
the $CATALINA_HOME/server/webapps/admin directory I still get the same
same message telling me to download and install the separate admin
application.
There must be something (can anyone tell me what?) pointing /admin to
the web page that displays this message.
Steve.

Did you simply extract the .zip file into your Tomcat 5.5.4 install
directory?
The .zip has a file path of jakarta-tomcat-5.5.4\, but the default
installation directory is Tomcat 5.5\
So if you simply extracted the zip into your install directory, look for
a directory named jakarta-tomcat-5.5.4
Drag & Drop those directory contents to the true tomcat installation
directory.
Perhaps the .zip could be re-packaged and remove the path
jakarta-tomcat-5.5.4 from the archive?
This would allow users to simply unzip admin.zip into their installation
directory.
James

Wade,
Forgive me but I'm a novice at this stuff. How can I modify the link ?
The context name is 'admin' but when I key in
http://localhost:8080/admin I get the same message telling me to
download and install the separate admin application.
Steve.

Well, I assume that first page you are talking about is static, so it
has no idea about the management app. You could probably find and
modify the link, and the other thing is from your manager application
find the context for the admin app and type in
http://yourservername:yourport/contextname
