That's what I thought, but my Realm is just ignored and the one that is present by default when installing Tomcat is used instead. > Are you using the same database for both application usage > and authentication? That's odd, but doable. Yes, same datasource. Won't go into the details, but perfectly valid reason for doing so. > If the context.xml file is in the webapp's META-INF > directory, the path and docBase attributes are not allowed - > remove them. Yes, in the META-INF. I removed the path and docBase attributes, but still no joy. > Is there a conf/Catalina/[host]/rankings.xml file present? no. > Is there anything in the Tomcat logs pertinent to the use > of the <Realm>? No, that was going to be my next question. I see no authentication logging whatsoever. Not even of the default Realm, which has debug="0". I'm baffled.
