so, if you want to get into the tomcat, manager, localhost:8080/manager/html

the user you use needs to be in the "manager" role

and to get into the /admin area the user needs to be in the "admin" role

so this example makes the tomcat user be both manager and admin roles



I'm pretty sure the roles "tomcat" and "role1" are examples and useless in practice.

hmm, though the way you had it the test user should have been able to get into the /manager/html area. (but wouldn't have been able to get into the admin area)

You did something wrong. http://localhost:8080/ should display Tomcat welcome page. Where did you get Tomcat 6?

sorry its my mistake.

I found that on 8080 port some other application is running .

So i installed tomcat on 8081 . Now everything is fine .
