The Realm class is "read only" (according to the API). There isn't a way for me to set the path to the tomcat-users.xml file (or anything else for that matter).
I'm not seeing a function in the Engine/Embedded/Context object to have it load the tomcat-users.xml file either (though the context does let me add a security role, though it doesn't seem to really do anything at this point). I'm attempting to go through the actual Tomcat code to see if I can look at the code that it uses to get everything started up so that I can build from that. I'm out of other ideas and things to try. -- Chris On Mon, Jan 10, 2011 at 12:22 PM, Pid <p...@pidster.com> wrote: > On 1/10/11 2:28 PM, Christopher Gross wrote: > > It is specified there -- but I don't have a server.xml file set up. > Since > > I'm using the embedded version, I set up the tomcat on the fly and just > have > > the java code start it. > > What's stopping you from programmatically creating the Realm and adding > it to the Host? > > > p > > > > I looked at the server.xml file that comes with the standard tomcat > > installation, and I see the the UserDatabaseRealm portion.
