Mark Hello Mark, Thanks for your reply and thanks for your last reply about the changing the xml file in which I havn't thank you cos I was grappling with so many things... I just found out that this guy he is using some kind of 'embedded Tomcat' to do the work I am not very sure though. And so I was trying to edit an external Tomcat server thus it never works. I am quite new to the way it was done cos eventually I found it inside apache-tomcat inside the AppData ! C:\Users\xxx\\Roaming\NetBeans\8.2\apache-tomcat-8.0.27.0_base\conf\tomcat-user.xml Can I know what is this method about? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
