Tomcat 8 Manager，HTML和文本运行，拒绝通过ANT连接访问

Question

first time poster here. I'm setting up a new Tomcat 8 instance and I'm trying to utilize tomcat 8 manager from my build.xml script (via IntelliJ). I'm using the list command to test the connection, but want I really want is stop/start/redeploy/etc. I've tested both manager/text/ and manager/html succesfully.

[Windows 7 box]

Code snippets incoming tomcat-users.xml:

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

build.xml:

<target name="list"
   description="List installed applications on servlet container">
    <echo>List Using:(${manager.url})  [${manager.username}|${manager.password}]</echo>
    <list    url="${manager.url}"
        username="${manager.username}"
        password="${manager.password}"/>

  </target>

Output from 'list' task from IntelliJ:

List Using:(http://localhost:8080/manager/text)  [script|test]
Task: list
C:\apps\myapp\build.xml:478: java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect
at org.apache.catalina.ant.AbstractCatalinaTask.execute(AbstractCatalinaTask.java:269)
...etc

Every tutorial I go to talks about setting up Tomcat-Users.xml or opening port 8443 for the manager, but I haven't seen an answer for what to do if you have confirmed manager is running (it is) but build.xml/ANT seem have trouble getting authorized.

Things to check:

• Have you actually confirmed that manager app is deployed to the /manager context? It's only deployed by default on the default host. For other virtual hosts, this is something you must do manually. Try visiting http://localhost:8080/manager with your web browser. Try logging in with the manager-gui user.

• Does your tomcat instance run more than one virtual host? If so, it's possible that your ant task is hitting a different virtual host than one you want. Check your $CATALINA_HOME/conf/server.xml file's <Engine> and <Host> elements. Does <Engine> contain just one <Host> ? If it contains multiple hosts, whate are the name attributes set to? What is the defaultHost attribute of <Engine> set to?
