Question about tomcat manager

[gregory oster <os...@hotmail.com>]

Hi there,

I apologize if this is not the right place to ask this question...
if not, please let know what would be a better place would be.

Firstly, I am very new to Java which is probably why I don't know
the answer. I would like to know if its possible to debug the tomcat
manager app and how?

Here is what I have done so far (all in Windows XP):
- Installed the lastest eclipse.
- Installed the latest tomcat binaries (6.0) and verified that it
works (along with the manager app).
- Unpacked the latest tomcat sources along with apache ant and built
tomcat fine using the instructions provided in BUILDING.txt. AFAIK,
the built binaries were placed in c:/usr/share/java.

What is unclear to me is:
1. Is it possible to run the tomcat manager application on its own
without tomcat itself? If so, how (ie what binaries are manager
specific, what do I execute and how)?
2. How do I determine which binaries in the c:/usr/... folder belong
to the tomcat manager?
3. How can I put the manager under a debugger (ie eclipse) with
breakpoints etc.

If you have any follow up questions, please let me know.

Thanks for your help.

Hi,
This is more suited to the Tomcat users mailing list,
users@tomcat.apache.org.  Please post follow-up there.

No.

You can look at the JARs that are under the webapps/manager directory
once your Tomcat build is done.  I'm not sure why you dumped them all
in /usr/share.

Google any of the Eclipse webapp debugging tutorials.
