The manager webapp provided by tomcat doesn't need installation -- it's
a part of tomcat already in the download distribution. It's location
has changed slightly over time -- normally found in the webapps
directory, tomcat 5.5.x put it in server/webapps by default. Regarding
the error below, there must have been a previous error in the logs from
when you started tomcat. Could you look at that and post if necessary?

Hello,
I'm trying to install the manager application on Tomcat 5.5.26 (well, actually
it comes installed by default, I am just trying to make it work) and after I
authenticate with a user created in conf/tomcat-users.xml I get the following
message
HTTP Status 404 - Servlet HTMLManager is not available

I googled around but all I could find was recomentations to re-install the
application but this mostly relates to RPM installs or 3rd party software but I
am using the source distribution from the official site... however I did try to
unpack the source again and overwrite the manager application (still have the
problem though).
My server.xml has the following about this:
<GlobalNamingResources>
<Resource name="UserDatabase" auth="Container"
type="org.apache.catalina.UserDatabase"
description="User database that can be updated and saved"
factory="org.apache.catalina.users.MemoryUserDatabaseFactory"
pathname="conf/tomcat-users.xml" />
</GlobalNamingResources>
[...]
<Realm className="org.apache.catalina.realm.UserDatabaseRealm"
resourceName="UserDatabase"/>
<Context path="/manager" docBase="/usr/local/tomcat-5.5.26/webapps/manager"
reloadable="true" crossContext="true"/>
Think these are the relevant parts.
If you have any ideas on what may be causing this let me know.
Thanks,
Nuno
