The username you provided is not allowed to use the text-based Tomcat Manager (error 403) when deploying on remote Tomcat8 using Jenkins

问题

I am trying to deploy a WAR on the remote Tomcat (Remote Machine) using Jenkins deploy to container Plugin. I have done the following configuration in tomcat-users.xml

<user username="deployer" password="deployer" roles="manager-gui,manager-script,admin" />

I have setup the proper username password and port in Jenkins deployer container plugin. The setup is working fine for the local Tomcat. But for remote Tomcat I keep getting the following error:

Caused by: org.codehaus.cargo.container.tomcat.internal.TomcatManagerException: The username you provided is not allowed to use the text-based Tomcat Manager (error 403) at org.codehaus.cargo.container.tomcat.internal.TomcatManager.invoke(TomcatManager.java:555)

Please Help.

This seems to be a Jenkins bug but I got around the problem by setting up following configuration in Tomcat:

Edit the file /webapps/manager/META-INF/context.xml:

<Context antiResourceLocking="false" privileged="true">
  <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.RemoteAddrValve" allow="127\.\d+\.\d+\.\d+|::1|0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1" />
</Context>

Change this file to comment the Value:

<Context antiResourceLocking="false" privileged="true">
  <!--
    <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.RemoteAddrValve"
         allow="127\.\d+\.\d+\.\d+|::1|0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1" />
    -->
</Context>

This resolved the issue. Hope this helps someone :)

I was facing the same issue while deploying artifact to tomcat with jenkins via container plugin, Solution:- i have added manager-script and manager-gui in the roles of the user and provide the full access to webapps/* directory. It helps me to deploy the artifact successfully and able to view it with manager-app.

If nothing works simply create another user in tomcat-users.xml file with magnager-script role assigned and set this user credential to jenkins .

In tomcat-users.xml file

<tomcat-users>
<user  username="deployuser" password="deployuser" roles="manager-script" />
<user username="admin" password="admin" roles="manager-gui" />
</tomcat-users>

In Tomcat 9, you don't need to add any manager-XXX roles. All you have to do is add the users and and assign the manager-gui (for GUI access) and manager-script (for access like Jenkins deployment ). Also, make sure to edit the file /webapps/manager/META-INF/context.xml, either to comment out valve or define appropriate reg ex for allow attribute

Step 1: We need to update : \webapps\manager\META-INF\context.xml. Bcs it allows only localhost. If you know the specific hostname or IP, you can add.

<Context antiResourceLocking="false" privileged="true" >
  <!-- <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.RemoteAddrValve"
         allow="127\.\d+\.\d+\.\d+|::1|0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1" />
         -->
</Context>

Step 2:

<role rolename="manager-gui"/>
<role rolename="manager-script"/>
<user username="tomcat" password="tomcat" roles="manager-gui, manager-script"/>

Deployment went successful.
