put login and password, I get that error:

The admin application is by default protected by security-constraints
which are defined in its web.xml file. In the delivery version, the
admin application required a user with the "admin" role.

You may remove the security constraints (not recommended except
for development purposes) or create a user with the "admin" role.

If the rest of your tomcat is still in its default configuration,
you just have to add a line like the following to the file
conf/tomcat-users.xml:

   <user username="admin" password="admin" role="admin"/>

Alternatively, just add the admin role to the existing user named
"tomcat":

   <user username="tomcat" password="tomcat" role="tomcat,admin"/>

After modifying tomcat-users.xml you have to restart Tomcat.

Be sure not to use these default user/passwords on a server which
is exposed to the internet.
