Is Tomcat manager part of the addon module default?

I ran nano /conf/tomcat-users.xml and it shows as a new file, although Tomcat is running and installed fine.

Yes, tomcat manager is include in tomcat addon module installation.

I add new user in tomcat-users.xml file but it not work.

Access denied for this new user

Same here. I enabled 8080 in APF and restarted Tomcat after inserting the user in
/usr/local/jakarta/jakarta-tomcat-5.5.9/conf/tomcat-users.xml


I get

HTTP Status 401 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

type Status report

message

description This request requires HTTP authentication ().


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Apache Tomcat/5.5.9

Anyone know about this?

did you restart tomcat?
Usually you need to edit any config files while tomcat is not running.
