INSTALLING APACHE TOMCAT FOR UBUNTU

1. Install the following packages:

http://localhost:8080/


3. Add user/password for administration:
sudo gedit /etc/tomcat6/tomcat-users.xml

Add inside <tomcat-users> and </tomcat-users> the following lines:
<role rolename="manager"/>
<role rolename="admin"/>
<user username="michael" password="michael" roles="manager,admin"/>
