           Summary: Manager application should not use GET request to
                    perform operations
           Product: Tomcat 6
           Version: 6.0.29
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: Manager application
        AssignedTo: dev@tomcat.apache.org
        ReportedBy: ra...@echophase.com


Currently the operations that can be performed on webapps are from the manager
app are triggered by links that generate GET requests. These actions include:
Start, Stop, Reload, Undeploy. These actions have side-effects and should not
be triggered by GET requests, but by POSTs. The effect on the end-user of the
manager app is that reloading the page after performing one of these actions
causes it to be performed again without warning. 

Suggested fix: change the links to forms with method="post", redirect the user
back to the list after posting.
