Java 8 Tomcat 8.5.20 Hello,
I am trying to understand how to get the host manager / manager access working from somewhere other than the localhost. I have tried all the various methods out there on the web to no avail. I keep getting the 403 access denied message. I am at a total loss at this point.. Thanks in advance. I hope this is readable as it's hard to tell what it's going to look like in this gmail editor. I have tried creating the following files. $CATALINA_BASE/conf/server.xml ######################################## <Connector port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1" redirectPort="8080" setIPVHosts="true" /> ######################################## $CATALINA_BASE/conf/Catalina/localhost/magager.xml ######################################## <?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?> <!-- <Context privileged="true" antiResourceLocking="false" docBase="${catalina.home}/webapps/manager"> <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.RemoteAddrValve" allow="127\.0\.0\.1" /> </Context> --> <!-- <Context privileged="true" antiResourceLocking="false" docBase="${catalina.home}/webapps/manager"> <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.RemoteAddrValve" allow="0\.0\.0\.0" /> </Context> --> <Context privileged="true" antiResourceLocking="false" docBase="${catalina.home}/webapps/manager"> <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.RemoteAddrValve" allow="^.*$" /> </Context> ######################################## $CATALINA_BASE/webapps/host-manager/WEB-INF/context.xml ######################################## <?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?> <!-- <Context antiResourceLocking="false" privileged="true" > <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.RemoteAddrValve" allow="127\.\d+\.\d+\.\d+|::1|0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1|156.45.121.182" /> </Context> --> <Context antiResourceLocking="false" privileged="true" > <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.RemoteAddrValve" allow=".*" /> </Context> <!-- <Manager sessionAttributeValueClassNameFilter="java\.lang\.(?:Boolean|Integer|Long|Number|String)|org\.apache\.catalina\.filters\.CsrfPreventionFilter\$LruCache(?:\$1)?|java\.util\.(?:Linked)?HashMap"/> --> ######################################## $CATALINA_BASE/webapps/manager/WEB-INF/context.xml ######################################## <?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?> <!-- <Context antiResourceLocking="false" privileged="true" > <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.RemoteAddrValve" allow="127\.\d+\.\d+\.\d+|::1|0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1|156.45.121.182" /> </Context> --> <Context antiResourceLocking="false" privileged="true" > <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.RemoteAddrValve" allow=".*" /> </Context> <!-- <Manager sessionAttributeValueClassNameFilter="java\.lang\.(?:Boolean|Integer|Long|Number|String)|org\.apache\.catalina\.filters\.CsrfPreventionFilter\$LruCache(?:\$1)?|java\.util\.(?:Linked)?HashMap"/> --> ######################################## $CATALINA_BASE/conf/ tomcat-users.xml <?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?> <!-- CENSORED --> <!-- Licensed to the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) under one or more contributor license agreements.
