| By default, no user is included in the "manager-gui" role required | |
| to operate the "/manager/html" web application. If you wish to use this app, | |
| you must define such a user - the username and password are arbitrary. | |
| Built-in Tomcat manager roles: | |
| - manager-gui - allows access to the HTML GUI and the status pages | |
| - manager-script - allows access to the HTTP API and the status pages | |
| - manager-jmx - allows access to the JMX proxy and the status pages | |
| - manager-status - allows access to the status pages only | |
| The users below are wrapped in a comment and are therefore ignored. If you | |
