Manage Project without restart Tomcat Host Manager

Host Manager is a web application inside of Tomcat that creates/removes Virtual Hosts within Tomcat.
A Virtual Host allows you to define multiple hostnames on a single server, so you can use the same server to handles requests to, for example, ren.myserver.com and stimpy.myserver.com.
Unfortunately documentation on the GUI side of the Host Manager doesn't appear to exist, but documentation on configuring the virtual hosts manually in context.xml is here:
The full explanation of the Host parameters you can find here:
Now, how to setup tomcat for project management.
·         Make sure your tomcat must contain below apps in it ‘webapps’ directory
o    ROOT, manager, host-manager, docs, examples




·         Now, first edit the REALM in the $CATALINA_HOME/conf/server.xml. Add the attribute of digest="HASH_TYPE" The values for HASH_TYPE can be sha, md5 or md2.



  • Execute the following to generate the HASH of the password:
    $CATALINE_HOME/bin/digest.sh -a HASH_TYPE PASSWORD
  • Replace the password for the user in question in the $CATALINA_HOME/conf/tomcat_users.xml

  • Restart the Tomcat
  • Now, you can access the tomcat management console from browser






  • Go to Manager App, Tomcat will ask the username and password which we added in tomcat-user.xml file

How to Bind Apache Tomcat to IPv4 (Solved)

Apache Tomcat  is an open source web server and servlet container developed by the  Apache Software Foundation . It implements the Java Servlet, JavaServer Pages (JSP), Java Unified Expression Language and Java WebSocket specifications from Sun Microsystems and provides a web server environment for Java code to run in. Binding Tomcat to IPv4 is necessary if we have our server not working due to the default binding of our tomcat server to IPv6. As we know IPv6 is the modern way of assigning IP address to a device and is not in complete practice these days but may come into practice in soon future. So, currently we don't need to switch our tomcat server to IPv6 due to no use and we should bind it to IPv4. Before thinking to bind to IPv4, we should make sure that we've got tomcat installed in our CentOS 7. Here's is a quick tutorial on  how to install tomcat 8 in CentOS 7.0 Server . 1. Switching to user tomcat First of all, we'll gonna switch user to  tomc...

Linux Command htop vs top

Those who work with Linux servers, but also those who use Linux as a desktop every day knows that it is very useful to have a list of processes running on the machine with a list of resources they are using, to see who is eating all the memory or is using all the CPU, and the ps command is not exactly the most convenient. So we ‘ll see a series of programs that serve to show what’s happening in our system and who is using our resources. The first tool that you can use to get information is the  ps  command, yes i know, it’s not so handy but you are sure to have it installed in every machine and you can get quickly some information on the system: Get the top 10 CPU consuming process ps aux | sort -n -k 3 | tail -10 Get the top 10 memory consuming process ps aux | sort -n -k 4 | tail -10 Top In most Unix-like operating systems, the top command is a system monitor tool that produces a frequently-updated list of processes. By default, the processes are or...
