Thanks Chuck, I'm not sure about that because I copied the format that's used in the tomcat manager webapp 's web.xml in tomcat-5.5.16/server/webapps/manager/WEB-INF/web.xml
which has in it: <!-- Define reference to the user database for looking up roles --> <resource-env-ref> <description> Link to the UserDatabase instance from which we request lists of defined role names. Typically, this will be connected to the global user database with a ResourceLink element in server.xml or the context configuration file for the Manager web application. </description> <resource-env-ref-name>users</resource-env-ref-name> <resource-env-ref-type> org.apache.catalina.UserDatabase </resource-env-ref-type> </resource-env-ref> > > > I also updated the webapps web.xml file so that it refers > > to SampleUserDatabase instead of Tomcat's UserDatabase. > > You shouldn't do that; the webapp isn't using the Resource, only the > Realm is.
