Troubleshooting

Server Returned HTTP Response Code: 403

Symptom: When you login to deploytool at startup or by selecting File->Set Tomcat Server from the deploytool menu, you get the following error:

Unable to add Server URL 'http://localhost:8080/manager'
 
Server returned HTTP response code: 403 for URL: 
http://localhost;8080/manager/list
 

Solution: The user name that you used to log in to deploytool has not been assigned the role of manager. Use admintool to edit the user's profile and assign the user the role of manager. Information on using admintool to edit a user's profile can be found at Managing Users.
