</div><h3 id="Introduction">Introduction</h3><div class="text">

<p>In many production environments, it is very useful to have the capability
to deploy a new web application, or undeploy an existing one, without having
to shut down and restart the entire container.  In addition, you can request
an existing application to reload itself, even if you have not declared it
to be <code>reloadable</code> in the Tomcat server
configuration file.</p>

<p>To support these capabilities, Tomcat includes a web application
(installed by default on context path <code>/manager</code>) that supports
the following functions:</p>
<ul>
<li>Deploy a new web application from the uploaded contents of a WAR file.</li>
<li>Deploy a new web application, on a specified context path, from the
    server file system.</li>
<li>List the currently deployed web applications, as well as the
    sessions that are currently active for those web apps.</li>
<li>Reload an existing web application, to reflect changes in the
    contents of <code>/WEB-INF/classes</code> or <code>/WEB-INF/lib</code>.
    </li>
<li>List the OS and JVM property values.</li>
<li>List the available global JNDI resources, for use in deployment
    tools that are preparing <code>&lt;ResourceLink&gt;</code> elements
    nested in a <code>&lt;Context&gt;</code> deployment description.</li>
<li>Start a stopped application (thus making it available again).</li>
<li>Stop an existing application (so that it becomes unavailable), but
    do not undeploy it.</li>
<li>Undeploy a deployed web application and delete its document base
    directory (unless it was deployed from file system).</li>
</ul>

<p>A default Tomcat installation includes an instance of the Manager application
configured for the default virtual host. If you create additional virtual hosts,
you may wish to add an instance of the Manager application to one or more of
those Hosts. To add an instance of the Manager web application
<code>Context</code> to a new host install the <code>manager.xml</code> context
configuration file in the
<code>$CATALINA_BASE/conf/[enginename]/[hostname]</code> folder. Here is an
example:</p>
<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>&lt;Context privileged="true" antiResourceLocking="false"
         docBase="${catalina.home}/webapps/manager"&gt;
  &lt;CookieProcessor className="org.apache.tomcat.util.http.Rfc6265CookieProcessor"
                   sameSiteCookies="strict" /&gt;
  &lt;Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.RemoteAddrValve"
         allow="127\.\d+\.\d+\.\d+|::1|0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1" /&gt;
  &lt;Manager sessionAttributeValueClassNameFilter="java\.lang\.(?:Boolean|Integer|Long|Number|String)|org\.apache\.catalina\.filters\.CsrfPreventionFilter\$LruCache(?:\$1)?|java\.util\.(?:Linked)?HashMap"/&gt;
&lt;/Context&gt;</code></pre></div>

<p>There are three ways to use the <strong>Manager</strong> web application.</p>
<ul>
<li>As an application with a user interface you use in your browser.
Here is an example URL where you can replace <code>localhost</code> with
your website host name:  <code>http://localhost:8080/manager/html</code> .</li>
<li>A minimal version using HTTP requests only which is suitable for use
by scripts setup by system administrators.  Commands are given as part of the
request URI, and responses are in the form of simple text that can be easily
parsed and processed.  See <a href="#Supported_Manager_Commands">
Supported Manager Commands</a> for more information.</li>
<li>A convenient set of task definitions for the <em>Ant</em>
(version 1.4 or later) build tool.  See
<a href="#Executing_Manager_Commands_With_Ant">Executing Manager Commands
With Ant</a> for more information.</li>
</ul>

</div><h3 id="Configuring_Manager_Application_Access">Configuring Manager Application Access</h3><div class="text">


    <p><em>The description below uses the variable name $CATALINA_BASE to refer the
    base directory against which most relative paths are resolved. If you have
    not configured Tomcat for multiple instances by setting a CATALINA_BASE
    directory, then $CATALINA_BASE will be set to the value of $CATALINA_HOME,
    the directory into which you have installed Tomcat.</em></p>


<p>It would be quite unsafe to ship Tomcat with default settings that allowed
anyone on the Internet to execute the Manager application on your server.
Therefore, the Manager application is shipped with the requirement that anyone
who attempts to use it must authenticate themselves, using a username and
password that have one of <strong>manager-xxx</strong> roles associated with
them (the role name depends on what functionality is required).
Further, there is no username in the default users file
(<code>$CATALINA_BASE/conf/tomcat-users.xml</code>) that is assigned to those
roles.  Therefore, access to the Manager application is completely disabled
by default.</p>

<p>You can find the role names in the <code>web.xml</code> file of the Manager
web application. The available roles are:</p>

<ul>
  <li><strong>manager-gui</strong> &mdash; Access to the HTML interface.</li>
  <li><strong>manager-status</strong> &mdash; Access to the "Server Status"
    page only.</li>
  <li><strong>manager-script</strong> &mdash; Access to the tools-friendly
    plain text interface that is described in this document,
    and to the "Server Status" page.</li>
  <li><strong>manager-jmx</strong> &mdash; Access to JMX proxy interface
    and to the "Server Status" page.</li>
</ul>

<p>The HTML interface is protected against CSRF (Cross-Site Request Forgery)
attacks, but the text and JMX interfaces cannot be protected. It means that
users who are allowed access to the text and JMX interfaces have to be cautious
when accessing the Manager application with a web browser.
To maintain the CSRF protection:</p>

<ul>
  <li>If you use web browser to access the Manager application using
      a user that has either <strong>manager-script</strong> or
      <strong>manager-jmx</strong> roles (for example for testing
      the plain text or JMX interfaces), you MUST close all windows
      of the browser afterwards to terminate the session.
      If you do not close the browser and visit other sites, you may become
      victim of a CSRF attack.</li>
  <li>It is recommended to never grant
      the <strong>manager-script</strong> or <strong>manager-jmx</strong>
      roles to users that have the <strong>manager-gui</strong> role.</li>
</ul>

<p><strong>Note</strong> that JMX proxy interface is effectively low-level root-like
administrative interface of Tomcat. One can do a lot, if one knows
what commands to call. You should be cautious when enabling the
<strong>manager-jmx</strong> role.</p>

<p>To enable access to the Manager web application, you must either create
a new username/password combination and associate one of the
<strong>manager-xxx</strong> roles with it, or add a
<strong>manager-xxx</strong> role
to some existing username/password combination.
As the majority of this document describes the using the text interface, this
example will use the role name <strong>manager-script</strong>.
Exactly how the usernames/passwords are configured depends on which
<a href="config/realm.html">Realm implementation</a> you are using:</p>
<ul>
<li><em>UserDatabaseRealm</em> plus <em>MemoryUserDatabase</em>, or <em>MemoryRealm</em>
    &mdash; The <em>UserDatabaseRealm</em> and <em>MemoryUserDatabase</em> are
    configured in the default <code>$CATALINA_BASE/conf/server.xml</code>.
    Both <em>MemoryUserDatabase</em> and <em>MemoryRealm</em> read an
    XML-format file by default stored at
    <code>$CATALINA_BASE/conf/tomcat-users.xml</code>, which can be
    edited with any text editor.  This file contains an XML
    <code>&lt;user&gt;</code> for each individual user, which might
    look something like this:
<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>&lt;user username="craigmcc" password="secret" roles="standard,manager-script" /&gt;</code></pre></div>
    which defines the username and password used by this individual to
    log on, and the role names they are associated with.  You can
    add the <strong>manager-script</strong> role to the comma-delimited
    <code>roles</code> attribute for one or more existing users, and/or
    create new users with that assigned role.</li>
<li><em>DataSourceRealm</em> or <em>JDBCRealm</em>
    &mdash; Your user and role information is stored in
    a database accessed via JDBC.  Add the <strong>manager-script</strong> role
    to one or more existing users, and/or create one or more new users
    with this role assigned, following the standard procedures for your
    environment.</li>
<li><em>JNDIRealm</em> &mdash; Your user and role information is stored in
    a directory server accessed via LDAP.  Add the
    <strong>manager-script</strong> role to one or more existing users,
    and/or create one or more new users with this role assigned, following
    the standard procedures for your environment.</li>
</ul>

<p>The first time you attempt to issue one of the Manager commands
described in the next section, you will be challenged to log on using
BASIC authentication.  The username and password you enter do not matter,
as long as they identify a valid user in the users database who possesses
the role <strong>manager-script</strong>.</p>

<p>In addition to the password restrictions, access to the Manager web
application can be restricted by the <strong>remote IP address</strong> or host
by adding a <code>RemoteAddrValve</code> or <code>RemoteHostValve</code>.
See <a href="config/valve.html#Remote_Address_Filter">valves documentation</a>
for details. Here is
an example of restricting access to the localhost by IP address:</p>
<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>&lt;Context privileged="true"&gt;
         &lt;Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.RemoteAddrValve"
                allow="127\.0\.0\.1"/&gt;
&lt;/Context&gt;</code></pre></div>

</div><h3 id="HTML_User-friendly_Interface">HTML User-friendly Interface</h3><div class="text">

<p>The user-friendly HTML interface of Manager web application is located at</p>

<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>http://{host}:{port}/manager/html</code></pre></div>

<p>As has already been mentioned above, you need <strong>manager-gui</strong>
role to be allowed to access it. There is a separate document that provides
help on this interface. See:</p>

<ul>
  <li><a href="html-manager-howto.html">HTML Manager documentation</a></li>
</ul>

<p>The HTML interface is protected against CSRF (Cross-Site Request Forgery)
attacks. Each access to the HTML pages generates a random token, which is
stored in your session and is included in all links on the page. If your next
action does not have correct value of the token, the action will be denied.
If the token has expired you can start again from the main page or
<em>List Applications</em> page of Manager.</p>

</div><h3 id="Supported_Manager_Commands">Supported Manager Commands</h3><div class="text">

<p>All commands that the Manager application knows how to process are
specified in a single request URI like this:</p>
<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>http://{host}:{port}/manager/text/{command}?{parameters}</code></pre></div>
<p>where <code>{host}</code> and <code>{port}</code> represent the hostname
and port number on which Tomcat is running, <code>{command}</code>
represents the Manager command you wish to execute, and
<code>{parameters}</code> represents the query parameters
that are specific to that command.  In the illustrations below, customize
the host and port appropriately for your installation.</p>

<p>The commands are usually executed by HTTP GET requests. The
<code>/deploy</code> command has a form that is executed by an HTTP PUT request.</p>

<div class="subsection"><h4 id="Common_Parameters">Common Parameters</h4><div class="text">

<p>Most commands accept one or more of the following query parameters:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>path</strong> - The context path (including the leading slash)
    of the web application you are dealing with.  To select the ROOT web
    application, specify "/".  <strong>NOTE</strong>:
    It is not possible to perform administrative commands on the
    Manager application itself.</li>
<li><strong>version</strong> - The version of this web application as used by
    the <a href="config/context.html">parallel deployment</a> feature. If you
    use parallel deployment wherever a path is required you must specify a
    version in addition to the path and it is the combination of path and
    version that must be unique rather than just the path.</li>
<li><strong>war</strong> - URL of a web application archive (WAR) file, or
    pathname of a directory which contains the web application, or a
    Context configuration ".xml" file.  You can use URLs in any of the
    following formats:
    <ul>
    <li><strong>file:/absolute/path/to/a/directory</strong> - The absolute
        path of a directory that contains the unpacked version of a web
        application.  This directory will be attached to the context path
        you specify without any changes.</li>
    <li><strong>file:/absolute/path/to/a/webapp.war</strong> - The absolute
        path of a web application archive (WAR) file.  This is valid
        <strong>only</strong> for the <code>/deploy</code> command, and is
        the only acceptable format to that command.</li>
    <li><strong>file:/absolute/path/to/a/context.xml</strong> - The
        absolute path of a web application Context configuration ".xml"
        file which contains the Context configuration element.</li>
    <li><strong>directory</strong> - The directory name for the web
        application context in the Host's application base directory.</li>
    <li><strong>webapp.war</strong> - The name of a web application war file
        located in the Host's application base directory.</li>
    </ul></li>
</ul>

<p>Each command will return a response in <code>text/plain</code> format
(i.e. plain ASCII with no HTML markup), making it easy for both humans and
programs to read).  The first line of the response will begin with either
<code>OK</code> or <code>FAIL</code>, indicating whether the requested
command was successful or not.  In the case of failure, the rest of the first
line will contain a description of the problem that was encountered.  Some
commands include additional lines of information as described below.</p>

<p><em>Internationalization Note</em> - The Manager application looks up
its message strings in resource bundles, so it is possible that the strings
have been translated for your platform.  The examples below show the English
version of the messages.</p>

</div></div>

<div class="subsection"><h4 id="Deploy_A_New_Application_Archive_(WAR)_Remotely">Deploy A New Application Archive (WAR) Remotely</h4><div class="text">

<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>http://localhost:8080/manager/text/deploy?path=/foo</code></pre></div>

<p>Upload the web application archive (WAR) file that is specified as the
request data in this HTTP PUT request, install it into the <code>appBase</code>
directory of our corresponding virtual host, and start, deriving the name for
the WAR file added to the <code>appBase</code> from the specified path. The
application can later be undeployed (and the corresponding WAR file removed) by
use of the <code>/undeploy</code> command.</p>

<p>This command is executed by an HTTP PUT request.</p>

<p>The .WAR file may include Tomcat specific deployment configuration, by
including a Context configuration XML file in
<code>/META-INF/context.xml</code>.</p>

<p>URL parameters include:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>update</code>: When set to true, any existing update will be
    undeployed first. The default value is set to false.</li>
<li><code>tag</code>: Specifying a tag name, this allows associating the
    deployed webapp with a tag or label. If the web application is undeployed,
    it can be later redeployed when needed using only the tag.</li>
</ul>

<p><strong>NOTE</strong> - This command is the logical
opposite of the <code>/undeploy</code> command.</p>

<p>If installation and startup is successful, you will receive a response
like this:</p>
<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>OK - Deployed application at context path /foo</code></pre></div>

<p>Otherwise, the response will start with <code>FAIL</code> and include an
error message.  Possible causes for problems include:</p>
<ul>
<li><em>Application already exists at path /foo</em>
    <p>The context paths for all currently running web applications must be
    unique.  Therefore, you must undeploy the existing web
    application using this context path, or choose a different context path
    for the new one. The <code>update</code> parameter may be specified as
    a parameter on the URL, with a value of <code>true</code> to avoid this
    error. In that case, an undeploy will be performed on an existing
    application before performing the deployment.</p>
    </li>
<li><em>Encountered exception</em>
    <p>An exception was encountered trying to start the new web application.
    Check the Tomcat logs for the details, but likely explanations include
    problems parsing your <code>/WEB-INF/web.xml</code> file, or missing
    classes encountered when initializing application event listeners and
    filters.</p>
    </li>
</ul>

</div></div>

<div class="subsection"><h4 id="Deploy_A_New_Application_from_a_Local_Path">Deploy A New Application from a Local Path</h4><div class="text">

<p>Deploy and start a new web application, attached to the specified context
<code>path</code> (which must not be in use by any other web application).
This command is the logical opposite of the <code>/undeploy</code> command.</p>

<p>This command is executed by an HTTP GET request.
There are a number of different ways the deploy command can be used.</p>

<div class="subsection"><h4 id="Deploy_a_previously_deployed_webapp">Deploy a previously deployed webapp</h4><div class="text">

<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>http://localhost:8080/manager/text/deploy?path=/footoo&amp;tag=footag</code></pre></div>

<p>This can be used to deploy a previously deployed web application, which
has been deployed using the <code>tag</code> attribute. Note that the work
directory of the Manager webapp will contain the previously deployed WARs;
removing it would make the deployment fail.</p>

</div></div>

<div class="subsection"><h4 id="Deploy_a_Directory_or_WAR_by_URL">Deploy a Directory or WAR by URL</h4><div class="text">

<p>Deploy a web application directory or ".war" file located on the Tomcat
server. If no <code>path</code> is specified, the path and version are derived
from the directory name or the war file name. The <code>war</code> parameter
specifies a URL (including the <code>file:</code> scheme) for either
a directory or a web application archive (WAR) file. The supported syntax for
a URL referring to a WAR file is described on the Javadocs page for the
<code>java.net.JarURLConnection</code> class.  Use only URLs that refer to
the entire WAR file.</p>

<p>In this example the web application located in the directory
<code>/path/to/foo</code> on the Tomcat server is deployed as the
web application context named <code>/footoo</code>.</p>
<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>http://localhost:8080/manager/text/deploy?path=/footoo&amp;war=file:/path/to/foo</code></pre></div>


<p>In this example the ".war" file <code>/path/to/bar.war</code> on the
Tomcat server is deployed as the web application context named
<code>/bar</code>. Notice that there is no <code>path</code> parameter
so the context path defaults to the name of the web application archive
file without the ".war" extension.</p>
<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>http://localhost:8080/manager/text/deploy?war=file:/path/to/bar.war</code></pre></div>

<p>Deploy a web application directory or ".war" file located in your Host
appBase directory. The path and optional version are derived from the directory
or war file name.</p>

<p>In this example the web application located in a sub directory named
<code>foo</code> in the Host appBase directory of the Tomcat server is
deployed as the web application context named <code>/foo</code>. Notice
that the context path used is the name of the web application directory.</p>
<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>http://localhost:8080/manager/text/deploy?war=foo</code></pre></div>


<p>In this example the ".war" file <code>bar.war</code> located in your
Host appBase directory on the Tomcat server is deployed as the web
application context named <code>/bar</code>.</p>
<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>http://localhost:8080/manager/text/deploy?war=bar.war</code></pre></div>

<div class="subsection"><h4 id="Deploy_using_a_Context_configuration_&quot;.xml&quot;_file">Deploy using a Context configuration ".xml" file</h4><div class="text">

<p>If the Host deployXML flag is set to true you can deploy a web
application using a Context configuration ".xml" file and an optional
".war" file or web application directory. The context <code>path</code>
is not used when deploying a web application using a context ".xml"
configuration file.</p>

<p>A Context configuration ".xml" file can contain valid XML for a
web application Context just as if it were configured in your
Tomcat <code>server.xml</code> configuration file. Here is an
example:</p>
<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>&lt;Context path="/foobar" docBase="/path/to/application/foobar"&gt;
&lt;/Context&gt;</code></pre></div>


<p>When the optional <code>war</code> parameter is set to the URL
for a web application ".war" file or directory it overrides any
docBase configured in the context configuration ".xml" file.</p>

<p>Here is an example of deploying an application using a Context
configuration ".xml" file.</p>
<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>http://localhost:8080/manager/text/deploy?config=file:/path/context.xml</code></pre></div>


<p>Here is an example of deploying an application using a Context
configuration ".xml" file and a web application ".war" file located
on the server.</p>
<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>http://localhost:8080/manager/text/deploy
 ?config=file:/path/context.xml&amp;war=file:/path/bar.war</code></pre></div>

<div class="subsection"><h4 id="Deployment_Notes">Deployment Notes</h4><div class="text">

<p>If the Host is configured with unpackWARs=true and you deploy a war
file, the war will be unpacked into a directory in your Host appBase
directory.</p>

<p>If the application war or directory is installed in your Host appBase
directory and either the Host is configured with autoDeploy=true or the
Context path must match the directory name or war file name without the
".war" extension.</p>

<p>For security when untrusted users can manage web applications, the
Host deployXML flag can be set to false.  This prevents untrusted users
from deploying web applications using a configuration XML file and
also prevents them from deploying application directories or ".war"
files located outside of their Host appBase.</p>

error message.  Possible causes for problems include:</p>
<ul>
<li><em>Application already exists at path /foo</em>
    <p>The context paths for all currently running web applications must be
    unique.  Therefore, you must undeploy the existing web
    application using this context path, or choose a different context path
    for the new one. The <code>update</code> parameter may be specified as
    a parameter on the URL, with a value of <code>true</code> to avoid this

    application before performing the deployment.</p>
    </li>
<li><em>Document base does not exist or is not a readable directory</em>
    <p>The URL specified by the <code>war</code> parameter must identify a
    directory on this server that contains the "unpacked" version of a
    web application, or the absolute URL of a web application archive (WAR)
    file that contains this application.  Correct the value specified by
    the <code>war</code> parameter.</p>
    </li>
<li><em>Encountered exception</em>
    <p>An exception was encountered trying to start the new web application.
    Check the Tomcat logs for the details, but likely explanations include
    problems parsing your <code>/WEB-INF/web.xml</code> file, or missing
    classes encountered when initializing application event listeners and
    filters.</p>
    </li>
<li><em>Invalid application URL was specified</em>
    <p>The URL for the directory or web application that you specified
    was not valid.  Such URLs must start with <code>file:</code>, and URLs
    for a WAR file must end in ".war".</p>
    </li>
<li><em>Invalid context path was specified</em>
    <p>The context path must start with a slash character. To reference the

<p><strong>The find leaks diagnostic triggers a full garbage collection. It

<p>The find leaks diagnostic attempts to identify web applications that have
caused memory leaks when they were stopped, reloaded or undeployed. Results
should always be confirmed
with a profiler. The diagnostic uses additional functionality provided by the
StandardHost implementation. It will not work if a custom host is used that
does not extend StandardHost.</p>

<p>Explicitly triggering a full garbage collection from Java code is documented
to be unreliable. Furthermore, depending on the JVM used, there are options to
disable explicit GC triggering, like <code>-XX:+DisableExplicitGC</code>.
If you want to make sure, that the diagnostics were successfully running a full
GC, you will need to check using tools like GC logging, JConsole or similar.</p>

    <li><p>A table showing Stage, Time, Bytes Sent, Bytes Receive, Client,

    Here is the list of the possible thread stages :</p>
    <ul>
        <li><p><em>"Parse and Prepare Request"</em> : The request headers are
        being parsed or the necessary preparation to read the request body (if
        a transfer encoding has been specified) is taking place.</p></li>
        <li><p><em>"Service"</em> : The thread is processing a request and
        generating the response. This stage follows the "Parse and Prepare
        Request" stage and precedes the "Finishing" stage. There is always at
        least one thread in this stage (the server-status page).</p></li>
        <li><p><em>"Finishing"</em> : The end of the request processing. Any
        remainder of the response still in the output buffers is sent to the
        client. This stage is followed by "Keep-Alive" if it is appropriate to
        keep the connection alive or "Ready" if "Keep-Alive" is not
        appropriate.</p></li>
        <li><p><em>"Keep-Alive"</em> : The thread keeps the connection open to
        the client in case the client sends another request. If another request
        is received, the next stage will be "Parse and Prepare Request". If no
        request is received before the keep alive times out, the connection will
        be closed and the next stage will be "Ready".</p></li>
        <li><p><em>"Ready"</em> : The thread is at rest and ready to be
        used.</p></li>
    </ul>
    </li>
</ul>

</div><h3 id="Using_the_JMX_Proxy_Servlet">Using the JMX Proxy Servlet</h3><div class="text">

  <div class="subsection"><h4 id="What_is_JMX_Proxy_Servlet">What is JMX Proxy Servlet</h4><div class="text">
    The JMX Proxy Servlet is a lightweight proxy to get and set the
    tomcat internals. (Or any class that has been exposed via an MBean)
    Its usage is not very user friendly but the UI is
    extremely helpful for integrating command line scripts for monitoring
    and changing the internals of tomcat. You can do two things with the proxy:
    get information and set information. For you to really understand the
    JMX Proxy Servlet, you should have a general understanding of JMX.
    If you don't know what JMX is, then prepare to be confused.
  </div></div>

  <div class="subsection"><h4 id="JMX_Query_command">JMX Query command</h4><div class="text">
    <p>This takes the form:</p>
<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>http://webserver/manager/jmxproxy/?qry=STUFF</code></pre></div>
    <p>Where <code>STUFF</code> is the JMX query you wish to perform. For example,
    here are some queries you might wish to run:</p>
    <ul>
      <li>
        <code>qry=*%3Atype%3DRequestProcessor%2C* --&gt;
         type=RequestProcessor</code> which will locate all
         workers which can process requests and report
         their state.
      </li>
      <li>
        <code>qry=*%3Aj2eeType=Servlet%2c* --&gt;
            j2eeType=Servlet</code> which return all loaded servlets.
      </li>
      <li>
        <code>qry=Catalina%3Atype%3DEnvironment%2Cresourcetype%3DGlobal%2Cname%3DsimpleValue --&gt;
            Catalina:type=Environment,resourcetype=Global,name=simpleValue</code>
            which look for a specific MBean by the given name.
      </li>
    </ul>
    <p>
    You'll need to experiment with this to really understand its capabilities
    If you provide no <code>qry</code> parameter, then all of the MBeans will
    be displayed. We really recommend looking at the tomcat source code and
    understand the JMX spec to get a better understanding of all the queries
    you may run.
    </p>
  </div></div>

  <div class="subsection"><h4 id="JMX_Get_command">JMX Get command</h4><div class="text">
  <p>
    The JMXProxyServlet also supports a "get" command that you can use to
    fetch the value of a specific MBean's attribute. The general form of
    the <code>get</code> command is:
  </p>

<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>http://webserver/manager/jmxproxy/?get=BEANNAME&amp;att=MYATTRIBUTE&amp;key=MYKEY</code></pre></div>

    <p>You must provide the following parameters:</p>
    <ol>
      <li><code>get</code>: The full bean name</li>
      <li><code>att</code>: The attribute you wish to fetch</li>
      <li><code>key</code>: (optional) The key into a CompositeData MBean attribute</li>
    </ol>
    <p>
    If all goes well, then it will say OK, otherwise an error message will
    be shown. For example, let's say we wish to fetch the current heap memory
    data:
    </p>

<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>http://webserver/manager/jmxproxy/?get=java.lang:type=Memory&amp;att=HeapMemoryUsage</code></pre></div>

    <p>Or, if you only want the "used" key:</p>

<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>http://webserver/manager/jmxproxy/
 ?get=java.lang:type=Memory&amp;att=HeapMemoryUsage&amp;key=used</code></pre></div>
  </div></div>

  <div class="subsection"><h4 id="JMX_Set_command">JMX Set command</h4><div class="text">
    <p>
    Now that you can query an MBean, its time to muck with Tomcat's internals!
    The general form of the set command is :
    </p>
<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>http://webserver/manager/jmxproxy/?set=BEANNAME&amp;att=MYATTRIBUTE&amp;val=NEWVALUE</code></pre></div>
    <p>So you need to provide 3 request parameters:</p>
    <ol>
      <li><code>set</code>: The full bean name</li>
      <li><code>att</code>: The attribute you wish to alter</li>
      <li><code>val</code>: The new value </li>
    </ol>
    <p>
    If all goes ok, then it will say OK, otherwise an error message will be
    shown. For example, lets say we wish to turn up debugging on the fly for the
    <code>ErrorReportValve</code>. The following will set debugging to 10.
    </p>
<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>http://localhost:8080/manager/jmxproxy/
 ?set=Catalina%3Atype%3DValve%2Cname%3DErrorReportValve%2Chost%3Dlocalhost
 &amp;att=debug&amp;val=10</code></pre></div>
    <p>and my result is (YMMV):</p>
<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>Result: ok</code></pre></div>

    <p>Here is what I see if I pass in a bad value. Here is the URL I used,
    I try set debugging equal to 'cow':</p>
<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>http://localhost:8080/manager/jmxproxy/
 ?set=Catalina%3Atype%3DValve%2Cname%3DErrorReportValve%2Chost%3Dlocalhost
 &amp;att=debug&amp;val=cow</code></pre></div>
    <p>When I try that, my result is</p>
<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>Error: java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "cow"</code></pre></div>
  </div></div>

  <div class="subsection"><h4 id="JMX_Invoke_command">JMX Invoke command</h4><div class="text">
    <p>The <code>invoke</code> command enables methods to be called on MBeans. The
    general form of the command is:</p>
<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>http://webserver/manager/jmxproxy/
 ?invoke=BEANNAME&amp;op=METHODNAME&amp;ps=COMMASEPARATEDPARAMETERS</code></pre></div>
    <p>For example, to call the <code>findConnectors()</code> method of the
    <strong>Service</strong> use:</p>
<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>http://localhost:8080/manager/jmxproxy/
 ?invoke=Catalina%3Atype%3DService&amp;op=findConnectors&amp;ps=</code></pre></div>
  </div></div>
</div><h3 id="Executing_Manager_Commands_With_Ant">Executing Manager Commands With Ant</h3><div class="text">

<p>In addition to the ability to execute Manager commands via HTTP requests,
as documented above, Tomcat includes a convenient set of Task definitions
for the <em>Ant</em> (version 1.4 or later) build tool.  In order to use these
commands, you must perform the following setup operations:</p>
<ul>
<li>Download the binary distribution of Ant from
    <a href="https://ant.apache.org">https://ant.apache.org</a>.
    You must use version <strong>1.4</strong> or later.</li>
<li>Install the Ant distribution in a convenient directory (called
    ANT_HOME in the remainder of these instructions).</li>
<li>Add the <code>$ANT_HOME/bin</code> directory to your <code>PATH</code>
    environment variable.</li>
<li>Configure at least one username/password combination in your Tomcat
    user database that includes the <code>manager-script</code> role.</li>
</ul>

<p>To use custom tasks within Ant, you must declare them first with an
<code>&lt;import&gt;</code> element.  Therefore, your <code>build.xml</code>
file might look something like this:</p>

<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>&lt;project name="My Application" default="compile" basedir="."&gt;

  &lt;!-- Configure the directory into which the web application is built --&gt;
  &lt;property name="build"    value="${basedir}/build"/&gt;

  &lt;!-- Configure the context path for this application --&gt;
  &lt;property name="path"     value="/myapp"/&gt;

  &lt;!-- Configure properties to access the Manager application --&gt;
  &lt;property name="url"      value="http://localhost:8080/manager/text"/&gt;
  &lt;property name="username" value="myusername"/&gt;
  &lt;property name="password" value="mypassword"/&gt;

  &lt;!-- Configure the path to the Tomcat installation --&gt;
  &lt;property name="catalina.home" value="/usr/local/apache-tomcat"/&gt;

  &lt;!-- Configure the custom Ant tasks for the Manager application --&gt;
  &lt;import file="${catalina.home}/bin/catalina-tasks.xml"/&gt;

  &lt;!-- Executable Targets --&gt;
  &lt;target name="compile" description="Compile web application"&gt;
    &lt;!-- ... construct web application in ${build} subdirectory, and
            generated a ${path}.war ... --&gt;
  &lt;/target&gt;

  &lt;target name="deploy" description="Install web application"
          depends="compile"&gt;
    &lt;deploy url="${url}" username="${username}" password="${password}"
            path="${path}" war="file:${build}${path}.war"/&gt;
  &lt;/target&gt;

  &lt;target name="reload" description="Reload web application"
          depends="compile"&gt;
    &lt;reload  url="${url}" username="${username}" password="${password}"
            path="${path}"/&gt;
  &lt;/target&gt;

  &lt;target name="undeploy" description="Remove web application"&gt;
    &lt;undeploy url="${url}" username="${username}" password="${password}"
            path="${path}"/&gt;
  &lt;/target&gt;

&lt;/project&gt;</code></pre></div>

<p>Note: The definition of the resources task via the import above will override
the resources datatype added in Ant 1.7. If you wish to use the resources
datatype you will need to use Ant's namespace support to modify
<code>catalina-tasks.xml</code> to assign the Tomcat tasks to their own
namespace.</p>

<p>Now, you can execute commands like <code>ant deploy</code> to deploy the
application to a running instance of Tomcat, or <code>ant reload</code> to
tell Tomcat to reload it.  Note also that most of the interesting values in
this <code>build.xml</code> file are defined as replaceable properties, so
you can override their values from the command line.  For example, you might
consider it a security risk to include the real manager password in your
<code>build.xml</code> file's source code.  To avoid this, omit the password
property, and specify it from the command line:</p>
<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>ant -Dpassword=secret deploy</code></pre></div>

<div class="subsection"><h4 id="Tasks_output_capture">Tasks output capture</h4><div class="text">

<p>Using <em>Ant</em> version <strong>1.6.2</strong> or later,
the Catalina tasks offer the option to capture their output in
properties or external files. They support directly the following subset of the
<code>&lt;redirector&gt;</code> type attributes:
</p>

<table class="defaultTable">
<tr>
<th>Attribute</th>
<th>Description</th>
<th style="text-align: center;">Required</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>output</td>
<td>Name of a file to which to write the output. If
the error stream is not also redirected to a file or property, it will
appear in this output.</td>
<td style="text-align: center;">No</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>error</td>
<td>The file to which the standard error of the
command should be redirected.</td>
<td style="text-align: center;">No</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>logError</td>
<td>This attribute is used when you wish to see
error output in Ant's log and you are redirecting output to a
file/property. The error output will not be included in the output
file/property. If you redirect error with the <i>error</i> or <i>errorProperty</i>
attributes, this will have no effect.</td>
<td style="text-align: center;">No</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>append</td>
<td>Whether output and error files should be
appended to or overwritten. Defaults to <code>false</code>.</td>
<td style="text-align: center;">No</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>createemptyfiles</td>
<td>Whether output and error files should be created
even when empty. Defaults to <code>true</code>.</td>
<td style="text-align: center;">No</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>outputproperty</td>
<td>The name of a property in which the output of
the command should be stored. Unless the error stream is redirected to
a separate file or stream, this property will include the error output.</td>
<td style="text-align: center;">No</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>errorproperty</td>
<td>The name of a property in which the standard
error of the command should be stored.</td>
<td style="text-align: center;">No</td>
</tr>
</table>

<p>A couple of additional attributes can also be specified:
</p>
<table class="defaultTable">
<tr>
<th>Attribute</th>
<th>Description</th>
<th style="text-align: center;">Required</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>alwaysLog</td>
<td>This attribute is used when you wish to see the
output you are capturing, appearing also in the Ant's log. It must not be
used unless you are capturing task output.
Defaults to <code>false</code>.
<em>This attribute will be supported directly by <code>&lt;redirector&gt;</code>
in Ant 1.6.3</em></td>
<td style="text-align: center;">No</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>failonerror</td>
<td>This attribute is used when you wish to avoid that
any manager command processing error terminates the ant execution. Defaults to <code>true</code>.
It must be set to <code>false</code>, if you want to capture error output,
otherwise execution will terminate before anything can be captured.
<br>
This attribute acts only on manager command execution,
any wrong or missing command attribute will still cause Ant execution termination.
</td>
<td style="text-align: center;">No</td>
</tr>
</table>

<p>They also support the embedded <code>&lt;redirector&gt;</code> element
in which you can specify
its full set of attributes, but <code>input</code>, <code>inputstring</code> and
<code>inputencoding</code> that, even if accepted, are not used because they have
no meaning in this context.
Refer to <a href="https://ant.apache.org">ant manual</a> for details on
<code>&lt;redirector&gt;</code> element attributes.
</p>

<p>
Here is a sample build file extract that shows how this output redirection support
can be used:
</p>

<div class="codeBox"><pre><code>    &lt;target name="manager.deploy"
        depends="context.status"
        if="context.notInstalled"&gt;

            path="${mgr.context.path}"
            config="${mgr.context.descriptor}"/&gt;
    &lt;/target&gt;

    &lt;target name="manager.deploy.war"

    &lt;/target&gt;

    &lt;target name="context.status"&gt;
        &lt;property name="running" value="${mgr.context.path}:running"/&gt;
        &lt;property name="stopped" value="${mgr.context.path}:stopped"/&gt;

        &lt;/condition&gt;
    &lt;/target&gt;</code></pre></div>

<p><strong>WARNING:</strong> even if it doesn't make many sense, and is always a bad idea,
calling a Catalina task more than once,
badly set Ant tasks depends chains may cause that a task be called
more than once in the same Ant run, even if not intended to. A bit of caution should be exercised when you are
capturing output from that task, because this could lead to something unexpected:</p>
<ul>
<li>when capturing in a property you will find in it only the output from the <em>first</em> call, because
Ant properties are immutable and once set they cannot be changed,
</li>
<li>when capturing in a file, each run will overwrite it and you will find in it only the <em>last</em> call
output, unless you are using the <code>append="true"</code> attribute, in which case you will
see the output of each task call appended to the file.
</li>
</ul>
