Tomcat Manager Username and Password needed

Hi guys,

Just wanted to know Where would i get the Tomcat manager's username and password .

My tomcat version is apache-tomcat-5.5.29.

Quote:

/install/apache-tomcat-5.5.29/conf/tomcat-users.xml

Code:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>

<tomcat-users>

  <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"/>

</tomcat-users>

Hi,

You have to define the role manager, so edit tomcat-users.xml like this:

Code:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>

<tomcat-users>

  <role rolename="tomcat"/>

  <role rolename="role1"/>

 <role rolename="manager"/>

  <user username="tomcat" password="tomcat" roles="tomcat"/>

  <user username="both" password="tomcat" roles="tomcat,role1"/>

  <user username="role1" password="tomcat" roles="role1"/>

  <user username="the-manager" password="secret" roles="manager,tomcat"/>

</tomcat-users>

It's better to use a different user as manager, but if you want you can add the role to an existing user, i.e.
