Running the Web Application Manager

Running the Web Application Manager

The manager is itself a Web application that is preinstalled into Tomcat, so Tomcat must be running in order to use it. You invoke a manager command via one of the URLs listed in Table B-1.

Table B-1 Tomcat Web Application Manager Commands

Function

Command

list

http://<host>:8080/manager/list

install

http://<host>:8080/manager/install? path=/mywebapp& war=file:/path/to/mywebapp

http://<host>:8080/manager/install? path=/mywebapp& war=jar:file:/path/to/mywebapp.war!/

reload

http://<host>:8080/manager/reload?path=/mywebapp

remove

http://<host>:8080/manager/remove?path=/mywebapp

Since the manager pages are protected Web resources, the first time you invoke a manager command, an authentication dialog will appear. You must log in to the manager with the user name and password you provided when you installed the Java WSDP.

The document Manager App HOW-TO, distributed with the Java WSDP at <JWSDP_HOME>/docs/tomcat/manager-howto.html, contains reference information about the manager application.
