[Opensource] [Opensource]server restart after object compilation

[Maurizio Brilli]

Hi Larry!
Thanks for your message addressing me to the tomcat docs. I actually 
found what I was looking for at

http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/manager-howto.html

which refers to my release (they made quite a few enhancements switching from 4.0 to 4.1).

Actually, it was just as you told me: since Tomcat is Internet-ready, they decided to leave the /manager application and manager user profiles undefined, in order to avoid security troubles.
What needs to be done (in the simplest scenario) is:

- add a "manager" context to the server.xml configuration, pointing to the manage application's path
- modify one of the defined users or better add a new user with "manager" role

After that, you may either point to some http actions or use the /manage/html web application (very nice!)

Anyway, everything is nicely pointed out in the doc. So now it takes me less than half the time to get the application working after I compile some objects...

Thanks again!
Ciao
Maurizio
