How to set the admin console for 5.5.x
Hi All,
I am having trouble setting up the admin console for Apache Tomcat/5.5.12. I
have downloaded the "apache-tomcat-5.5.12-admin.zip" file from Tomcat site.
Unzipped it and placed the "admin" folder under "C:\Tomcat55\server\webapps"
folder. When I try the below page:
http://localhost/admin/
I get the admin log in page. I enter "admin" and "admin" as
username/password as defined in "tomcat-users.xml" file. Next page displays:
Tomcat's administration web application is no longer installed by default.
Download and install the "admin" package to use it.
Any hepl is greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
Regards,
Shridhar

Hi Dhaval,
I found the reason why it was not working! When we install Tomcat 5.5.X,
there is a folder by name "*admin*" under $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/ROOT/.
While experimenting, I had removed this folder. Hence, I reinstalled Tomcat,
then did the following steps to get the admin console working:
a. Installed Tomcat 5.5.12
b. Placed "admin" folder from the "apache-tomcat-5.5.12-admin.zip" under:
*$CATALINA_HOME\server\webapps*
c. Placed the "admin.xml" file under:
*$CATALINA_HOME\conf\Catalina\localhost*
d. Made sure there is a user by name "admin" in the "tomcat-users.xml" file
with following details:
*<user username="admin" password="admin" roles="admin,manager"/>*
I had followed all these steps, except that the "admin" folder under ROOT
was missing! Since, this is not documented in Tomcat documents, thought of
sharing the exact steps.
Thanks much for the responses.
Regards,
Shridhar

Re: How to set the admin console for 5.5.x

Hi Shridhar,
Tomcat Admin (for 5.5) zip or rar.gz file has following two main contents:
admin.xml
admin (webapps)
You have to put admin.xml inside $CATALINA_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost and
admin (webapps) inside $CATALINA_HOME/server/webapps . Also make sure that (which
you already did but one more time) that there is a user in tomcat-users.xml which
has "admin" role.
Put everything in proper places and restart the tomcat. You will see results.
Hope it helps.
Regards,
D

Hi Richard,
Firstly, thanks for the reply.
I have placed it under:
$CATALINA_HOME/server/webapps folder as indicated.
I get the login page for admin console, but after that I am getting the
error message.
Further help is appreciated.
Thank you.

Shridhar

Shridhar,
You have placed it in the wrong directory structure. Look at the paths in
the zip/tar file - they show you the correct location. It is mostly under
server/webapps - not webapps.
