1. Rules http://tomcat.apache.org/lists.html#tomcat-users -> 6. Top-posting is bad. 2. Commons mistakes: a) Did you restart Tomcat after changing the file? If you do not restart Tomcat, it won't read the file. b) Is you tomcat-users file correct (well-formed) XML? A typical mistake is forgetting to remove an XML comment. Other typical mistake is not closing an XML tag properly. Syntax errors are fatal. That is a feature of XML technology. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XML#Well-formedness_and_error-handling c) The default configuration uses a LockOutRealm. If you type a wrong password for 5 times, your account is locked for 5 minutes. d) Are you accessing the correct Tomcat instance? Are your requests logged in access log file? Is your IP address (in access log file) the same as you expect? Is such an IP address allowed to access the Manager/HostManager web application. Usually those web applications are protected by a RemoteAddrValve. Have you looked in other log files as well? https://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/FAQ/Troubleshooting_and_Diagnostics#Common_Troubleshooting_Scenario > GoDaddy https://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/FAQ/Linux_Unix#Q5 Best regards, Konstantin Kolinko --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
