Read only admin webapp

[Gabriele Garuglieri <ga...@infoblu.it>]

I'd like to allow the capability to browse the tomcat configuration via 
admin webapp but without allowing the possibility to alter it.
Do you know if admin can be configured in read only mode?

(just for your knowledge i explain the reason for this request. We 
deploy our applications using a separate context.xml for each 
application and manager commands, but after committing any changes with 
admin webapp the applications context information are written into 
server.xml making useless the application context.xml..
IMHO there's a problem in how context informations are handled, just 
imagine this sequence:
1. appa.war and appa.xml are copied into webapps
2. manager install using appa.xml
3. admin webapp commits some changes and /appa context info are written 
into server.xml
4. a new release of appa.war and appa.xml with changes in appa.xml are 
copied into webapps
5. manager stop and start of /appa context loads new context configuration
6. tomcat stop and start
7. oops! /appa old context configuration is loaded from server.xml 
ignoring new appa.xml config.
9. then someone calls you (me) unaware of that, asking why the new 
release of the application that in the test environment is working 
perfectly, now behaves in strange ways...

The obvious solution was to uninstall admin to avoid possible mistakes, 
but it's a pity because it is very useful using it to look into tomcat 
config instead of having to browse through server.xml and a number of 
context.xml.)

Regards,  Gabriele.
