When I try to navigate to the any of the Manager links from the first page, I get a login popup. I have tried all of the usernames in the tomcat-users.xml and all I get back is a fresh login popup. It looks like there is a bug in the org.apache.tomcat.util.digester.Digester for 7.0.52 which is stopping the Memory User Database Realm from loading. Before I unjar the tomcat-util.jar file. Is there something that I am doing wrong? Thanks in advance, Jim
