<div>I have a new instllation of tomcat on centos. My

<div><a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://localhost:8080/">http://localhost:8080</a>
brings up the tomcat page & one of the option is "Administration".
I would like to use this web interface and even give some of the test
webapp users ability to restart tomcat.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>According to the home page, users are defined in <code>$CATALINA_HOME/conf/tomcat-users.xml</code>.
Currently my file has the following content</div>
<div> more tomcat-users.xml<br>
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?><br>
<tomcat-users><br>
<role rolename="tomcat"/><br>
<role rolename="role1"/><br>
<user username="tomcat" password="tomcat" roles="tomcat"/><br>
<user username="both" password="tomcat" roles="tomcat,role1"/><br>
<user username="role1" password="tomcat" roles="role1"/><br>
</tomcat-users><br>
</div>
<div>I tried logging to the administration web interface with
tomcat/tomcat but it did not work. Can anyone guide to configure this
file? I am very new to tomcat.</div>

<div>Thank you.</div>

Are you new to tomcat? If so it would be in your best interested to

The apache foundation provides extensive documentation for Tomcat. It
is a wealth of knowledge.<br>
