Tomcat Manager?

[Sonic84]

I was reading how Tomcat includes a built in management interface that can give statistics and management options for installed web apps like Casper. I was wondering if anyone had any luck setting this up on their JSS?

Hi Sonic84
Yes, I have it up and running with my instances which are based on Ubuntu with the native Ubuntu tomcat (not the one that comes with the installer. There you just have to enter

sudo apt-get update

and then

sudo apt-get install tomcat7-admin

and then add a management user

sudo nano /etc/tomcat7/tomcat-users.xml

it should then look something like this:

<tomcat-users> <user username="admin" password="password" roles="manager-gui,admin-gui"/> </tomcat-users>

and then restart the server

sudo service tomcat7 restart

and then you should be able to access it:
