FYI, I'm on MacOS (Sierra 10.12.6). I just now 1) installed apache-tomcat-8.5.32 2) added these two lines to tomcat-users.xml <role rolename="manager-gui"/> <user username="hassan" password="sekretz" roles="manager-gui"/> 3) started tomcat (`bin/catalina.sh run`) 4) open browser to http://localhost:8080/manager/html 5) supplied above credentials 6) uploaded a war file which deployed correctly I'm not sure why you created a context file, but it seems extraneous...
