Lost Tomcat managed User directory


Gary Craig (2155) | asked Jul 18 '08, 4:32 p.m.

After an upgrade to GA, the following happened:
1) My repository is intact (DB2) and it sees all of our users (~25)
2) There are no USERs in the system user directory other than ADMIN.

How do I recreate, export, synchronize -- whatever the user information. Now no users can login. I also can't update any capabilities on the repository managed users since they "don't exist" in the external user directory.

The tomcat user database is maintained in
{Jazz-Install-Dir}/jazz/server/tomcat/conf/tomcat-users.xml file.

If you have the backup of the old server installation, you can copy
{Old-Jazz-Installation-Dir}/jazz/server/tomcat/conf/tomcat-users.xml to
{New-Jazz-Installation-Dir}/jazz/server/tomcat/conf folder to retrieve the
tomcat user database.
