cannot access manager or admin applications ...

[ian macnaughtan <ia...@macnaughtan.id.au>]

Hello.

First i should say that i am newbie with tomcat and a relative
inexperienced linux users.

I have just installed the 5.0.28 binary from tomcat.apache.org on suse
10.1. I installed in /srv/tomcat/. I have configured to start as a
daemon using the tomcat5.sh file. I have edited tomcat-users.xml adding
admin and manager roles and adding a user admin with these 2 roles. I
have checked that this is the file used for authentication.

I can access the welcome page. When i click on the manager or admin
links i get a popup requesting username and password. However, i cannot
get past this point. It simply keeps prompting until it i receive the
error page.

I have searched the faq, mailing lists and web and found no help. Does
anyone have any ideas?

I don't know that it matters but I have also just installed the sun
jdk1.5.0_08. I am running apache2 but have not configured the connector
for tomcat as far as i am aware.

Regards
Ian.

Hi Ian,

I would try to access the manager application directly and see if i
encounter the same Problem.

try

http://tomcatHost:8080/manager/html/list

should prompt you to enter your user name and password if you enter
the right credential i assume thing will/should work fine otherwise if
you can see any weired problems in your Catalina.out (in your case if
you used the suse package so that should be in
/var/log/tomcat/catalina.out and if you just unpacked the archive from
apache so it should be in /srv/tomcat/logs/catalina.out)  please
provide them to see if someone can help.

Greetings
