Hi Chris, Thanks for your input.
Re your points a+b: "You have put your <Realm> into conf/context.xml instead of into your web application's META-INF/context.xml" Actually neither ---- we define the <Realm> in $CATALINA_BASE/conf/server.xml That's also what I see in the Tomcat-docs: http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/realm-howto.html#DataSourceRealm And I see no mention of META-INF anywhere in there. Can you please elaborate what you're referring to?
