14 * Create an administrative user in /opt/local/share/java/tomcat6/conf/tomcat-users.xml (20 mins to find out where the user should be and how not to restart tomcat)
15
16 something along the line of:
17
18 ~========================
19 <?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
20 <tomcat-users>
21 <role rolename="manager"/>
22 <role rolename="admin"/>
23 <user username="tomcat" password="tomcat" roles="admin,manager"/>
24 </tomcat-users>
