IMP:Failure in editing files in Tomcat
Hi,
i have installed Apache Tomcat 6.0 in my machine which is having
windows 7 as operating system. i have made a folder in webapps in
tomcat directory. whenever i wanted to save any file in my folder, it
gives me an error that you should have administrator privileges to
edit the file.
in my system there is only one user account and that also is
Administrator and i am using the same. i am not able to do stuff due
to this error. can you please help regarding this.
Regards
Anoop

As previously noted, this has nothing to do with Tomcat. Windows Vista and 7 are not designed for users to run with the Administrator account - don't do that. Set up a real user account and, if need be, add it to the Administrators group. Then, remove your existing Tomcat installation and start over.
If you do end up needing to modify a file or directory that requires administrator access, you'll need to start whatever editor you're using with administrator privileges - not the Administrator account. if you don't know how to do that, you'll need to do some studying about Windows and UAC.

Not really, it's not a Tomcat problem as far as I can see.
It seems like a Windows problem.
