I'm a newbie who just installed Tomcat 5.5. Installation messages told
me the userid was tomcat55. When I attempted to view "Status", "Tomcat
Administration", or "Tomcat Manager" from my browser, I was asked for a
userid and pw. Of course, not knowing the password, I was treated to a
message that said "Access to the requested resource has been denied".
Now I can't seem to do anything to get past the error, not even
rebooting and/or restarting Tomcat. Help! Ron
Please specify: tomcat version, jdk version, operating system version.
Did you install tomcat by downloading from the tomcat.apache.org site?
or is it a linux distro version. If the latter, then probably best to
install the proper tomcat.apache.org version. You won't get much help on
this list unless you do...
To give you some guidance on your specific problem above
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/realm-howto.html
which will explain amongst other things that the 'default' security
realm is controlled by a file called tomcat-users.xml in the
$TOMCAT_HOME/conf directory.
You will need to edit that file and then restart tomcat. You will also
need to read (most) of the documents carefully. I guess you've got the
linux distro because it would be much better to start with the currrent
release version (6.0) than 5.5
