Hi I have Tomcat 7.0 on Windows Vista and I'm having trouble logging into the manager app. Ie it should pop up a basic auth user/pass login window but instead it sends me to 403 access denied all the time.
I added the following to tomcat-users.xml: ... <role rolename="manager-gui"/> ... <user username="manager" password="tomcat" roles="manager-gui"/> and I want to login w/ manager:tomcat, but instead it sends me to the 403 page. I also tried commenting out the lockOutRealm lines in conf/server.xml. Not sure if that makes a difference. Strangely when I just add the "manager-gui" role to user tomcat's roles list it logs me in successfully every time w/out even asking for a username and password. -hanson
