Sorry for the typo... Below, I meant war file, not jar...

As somebody else already wrote, is not possible to stop/restart tomcat from the web interface, because the web interface itself is a web-application running into tomcat (so... to work it needs tomcat to be up and running...) You can stop and restart single webapps (if needed). Sometimes is enough to redeploy the application (copy the new jar file to webapps folder), without any further action required. I think you need to restart the whole server only when you want to update some shared libraries.

I can login to the admin http://localhost:8080/admin/ and application manager http://localhost:8080/manager/html I would like to give some test application users ability to start & restart the tomcat server but not the entire admin / manager interface. Is it possible to configure this? I am told that when the application (jsp/servelet code) changes, tomcat has to restart to clear the old cache. Is it true? My tomcat version is 5.5.23 thanks, vm On Fri, May 7, 2010 at 9:59 AM, Caldarale, Charles R < chuck.caldar...@unisys.com> wrote: > > From: testwreq wreq [mailto:testw...@gmail.com] > > Subject: tomcat administration > > > > I have a new installation of tomcat on centos.
