1. Do not confuse error 401 and error 403. HTTP Response Status 401 means that server asks you for a different user name / password. -- Your name/password are wrong. HTTP Response Status 401 means that access have been denied: a) Your name/password are known, but the user does not have rights to access the page. => Check roles of an user. b) Your name/password are known, but CSRF token has expired. => Go to <site>/manager/html. The entrance page does not need a CSRF token. c) You have been blocked by your IP address (by RemoteAddrValve). (No user name is asked) > > My guess is that one or more of the following is true: > > 1. The tomcat-users.xml file isn't in your CATALINA_BASE/conf/ directory > > 2.

The tomcat-users.xml file is read when Tomcat starts. You need to restart Tomcat for the changes to take effect.
