I've spent about 2 weeks on and off (I have other projects) and still cant log in to the Tomcat 8.5 manager app. I get the signon box, enter my credentials from the tomcat-users.xml file and the signon box is promptly returned.
I read the docs regarding the required roles, and the valve that restricts access other than from localhost, restarted each time with no success. I haven't figured out how to set debug on to hopefully give me more info on why it's failing. Does anyone have specific steps that would need to be followed in order to allow a user to access the manager app after a new install? We don't use this that much so it's very frustrating to say the least. Once I get the manager access handled, then I'll be able to deploy the application that tomcat8 was required for (I know that you can use commands vs the gui to do that, but we're used to using the gui so that's why we need it to work. Any comments/suggestions would be greatly appreciated as I've already wasted way too much time trying to address such a simple request. Thanks... Joel JOEL SAUNDERS SR.
