Configuring Security for Tomcat Server [message #494977]

Hi,
I wish to configure some security for a tomcat server that I have set up to be managed by eclipse.

When not using eclipse, all I have to do is update the catalina.policy file, and then execute:
catalina start -security,

I am wondering what do I do for eclipse?

I edit the catalina.policy file and then republish. This looks all ok.

I then go to the server overview for the managed tomcat server and selecting: " open launch configuration", followed by the arguments tab.

I then add as VM arguments:

-Djava.security.manager
-Djava.security.policy=" D:\docprod637ws\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.wst.server.co re\tmp0\conf\catalina.policy "

but it doesn't work are my missing something?

In the server editor Server Options section, you can enable the "Enable
Security" option and those java.security VM arguments will be added
automatically. However, what you have done seems fine. I will need to
know more about what "doesn't work" means to offer additional help.

Cheers,
Larry
