Tomcat 3.2b7

[Horst Fiedler <ho...@tifff.com>]

Hello,

Binary download crashes when attempting to access 
admin's "view all contexts" jsp.

Failure is Nullpointerexception in ContextAdmin where getAttribute()
returns null: 
    public void init(HttpServletRequest request) {
	FacadeManager facadeM=(FacadeManager)request.getAttribute(
FacadeManager.FACADE_ATTRIBUTE);
	realRequest = facadeM.getRealRequest(request);

As no admin role was in, only change applied to downloaded version was
in tomcat-users.xml where a admin user was added:

<!-- tomcat admin -->
  <user name="webadmin" password="tomcat" roles="admin" />

For final 3.2 it would be nice if sufficient basic authentication is
already 
included in binary download.

Environment: Linux SuSe 6.4, .tomcatrc for use by tomcat.sh was:

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jdk1.3
export JAVACMD="$JAVA_HOME/bin/java -Xmx64m"

Request created was:
http://localhost:8080/admin/contextAdmin/contextAdmin.jsp?submit=View+All+Contexts&addContextPath=&addContextDocBase=&removeContextName=

Maybe I missed something as I did'nt deal with workers, in-process
features, ... 

Last version seen ContextAdmin respond properly: Tomcat 3.1, but quite
sure, many things have changed since.
