Hi Andoni & Yoav. Tried what Andoni recommended - no joy. >From the documentation, inorder to access admin and manager webapp the user must have those respective roles.
I've commented out the Realm code in server.xml, so effectively there no encyption on any passwords, just the password authentification from tomcat-users.xml. Tried Yoav's suggestion of defining rolenames for admin and manager - no joy. I agree with you Yoav - it is a trivial thing, but it's not working. A couple of questions: a) does Apache need to be restarted (aswell as tomcat) when any changes are made to tomcat-user.xml, etc.? b) which file can I look in to check $CATALINA_HOME?
