Configure the Java EE security roles on Apache Tomcat
You must configure the Java™ EE security roles for the Application Center on the Apache Tomcat web application server.
Before you begin
Review the definition of roles at Configure user authentication for Application Center.
Procedure
- In the Apache Tomcat web application server, you configure the roles of appcenteruser and appcenteradmin in the conf/tomcat-users.xml file. The installation creates the following users:
<user username="appcenteradmin" password="admin" roles="appcenteradmin"/> <user username="demo" password="demo" roles="appcenteradmin"/> <user username="guest" password="guest" roles="appcenteradmin"/>
- We can define the set of users as described in the Apache Tomcat documentation, Realm Configuration HOW-TO.
