Tomcat Administration problem

Hello,

I am running a Tomcat 5.5.9 server on Ubuntu 5.04 machine.

When I try to logon to the Tomcat manager, the server prompts me for a
username and password.

When I installed (from binaries) the server I didn't specify any
username and/or password.

What details should I enter?



Thank you in advanced,

                           Nir Tayeb

Thank you, but the solution you offered is not helpful to me.

I have created a user with a role of "manager", and I login with his.
but yet, the server prompt me for a username and password.

this is the user definition code:
<user username="nir" password="123456" roles="manager"/>


thanks, nir :-)

You should have a file named tomcat-users.xml in your conf subdir. In it there are 
users/passwords and roles that they belong to. You need to log in with a username that has 
manager role.
