Hi,

Just installed Tomcat on to my Mac and am having trouble logging into Tomcat. The work around is clearly provided for this in many places but I have not been able to apply the work around with success.

Tomcat starts up with out trouble and I can view the index page at address localhost:8080. When I select the status link off that page I am challenged for a user and password. I enter tomcat/tomcat for user/password per my entry in the tomcat-users.xml file. Unfortunately I fail to get past the prompt.

Here is a snip of my tomcat-users file.

cd /Library/Tomcat/Home/conf
vi tomcat-users.xml
<tomcat-users>
<!--
 <role rolename="tomcat"/>
 <role rolename="role1"/>
 <role rolename="manager"/>
 <role rolename="admin"/>
 <user username="tomcat" password="tomcat" roles="tomcat,admin,manager"/>
 <user username="both" password="tomcat" roles="tomcat,role1"/>
 <user username="role1" password="tomcat" roles="role1"/>
-->
</tomcat-users>

I have cleared all the "private" data in the browser (Firefox 3.0.11) I have even rebooted, cycled tomcat, still can't get past the login.

The rest of my set up is this:

Mac OS X 10. 5.7
Java version "1.5.0_16"
apache-tomcat-6.0.20

I don't see anything wrong in the logs. Any suggestions as to how I might debug this problem?

Thanks,
