Thanks for your reply. I tried the following: 1) I put <!-- and --> around the UserDababaseRealm shown below:
<!-- <Realm className="org.apache.catalina.realm.UserDatabaseRealm" debug="0" resourceName="UserDatabase"/> --> 2) I removed the <!-- and --> around the JDBCRealm for MySql (I did not insert any of my code, I simply use the existing code in the server.xml) and I do not see any & in that section of code. See below: <Realm className="org.apache.catalina.realm.JDBCRealm" debug="99" driverName="org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver" connectionURL="jdbc:mysql://localhost/authority" connectionName="test" connectionPassword="test" userTable="users" userNameCol="user_name" userCredCol="user_pass" userRoleTable="user_roles" roleNameCol="role_name" /> I saved the file and I could not start the Tomcat server. I then reverted everything back, the Tomcat server works as normal.
