For security reasons, using the administration webapp is restricted to users with role “admin”. The manager webapp is restricted to users with role “manager”. Users are defined in CATALINA_HOME/conf/tomcat-users.xml.

Change it for instance :

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<tomcat-users>
  <role rolename="tomcat"/>
  <role rolename="role1"/>
  <role rolename="manager"/>
  <role rolename="admin"/>
  <user username="tomcat" password="tomcat" roles="tomcat"/>
  <user username="both" password="tomcat" roles="tomcat,role1"/>
  <user username="role1" password="tomcat" roles="role1"/>
  <user username="admin" password="pass" roles="admin,manager"/>
</tomcat-users>
</xml>
