Problem: Apache Tomcat 'authorization required'

Classic Servoy
1

Anyone come across the following scenario?
A clean installation of Servoy Developer with 5 client licenses on clean install WinXP. Run Server, and in browser point to //localhost:8080. Shows the expected Servoy Client Launcher screen.

Now point the browser to //localhost:8080/servoy-admin. Instead of the admin screen I get a popup window titled ‘Authentication required’. Above username and password fields is the sentence: ‘Enter username and password for “config” at http://localhost:8080’.

Does this symptom indicate a problem with the servoy install? Suggestions for solving this issue are most welcome!

Hi Richard,

First of all welcome to the forum! :)

This authentication dialog only appears when you have already an (admin) user defined in the repository.
Are you using an existing repository DB? Or maybe you restored an old repository DB ?

Hope this helps.

You are a star Robert! Many thanks. Following your lead, I have solved the problem by exporting the demo I need, creating a new database for the repository and importing the demo solution.
