In your $CATALINA_HOME/conf there is a file called tomcat-users.xml. Edit the file and create an admin role and user.
For example: <?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?> <tomcat-users> <role rolename="tomcat"/> <role rolename="role1"/> <role rolename="standard"/> <role rolename="manager"/> <role rolename="admin"/> <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="standard,manager,admin"/> </tomcat-users> Restart tomcat and login.

Usually I use Tomcat5.0.19 via Apache 2. Today , I try to use tomcat only: http://localhost:8080 to do a test, it asks me user name and password. I did not know the user name and password. Both Apache and Tomcat are on my computer and inslled by myself. I like to know which configuration causes it. OP is windows 2000. Thanks. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
