TOMCAT - i cannot configure
 

hi every body,

i have just installed TOMCAT from the apache group, all seems to be working fine, except for the configuration part of the server.

i click on the administration bit of the server test page, it loads and asks for a username and password. however i have no idea what the user name or password to get into the system is.

is there a default username and password for a default install for tomcat ?

or am i being stupid and over looking a howto some place?

thanks

Add a username and password to the file $CATALINA_HOME/conf/tomcat-users.xml. You may need to add the roles for admin and manager as well.

eg:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<tomcat-users>
<role rolename="tomcat"/>
<role rolename="role1"/>
<role rolename="manager"/>
<role rolename="admin"/>
<user username="tomcat" password="tomcat" roles="tomcat"/>
<user username="role1" password="tomcat" roles="role1"/>
<user username="both" password="tomcat" roles="tomcat,role1"/>
<user username="dave" password="tomcat" roles="admin,manager"/>
</tomcat-users>

Dave.
