Yes I have restarted tomcat after editing this file:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='cp1252'?>
<tomcat-users>
<role rolename="manager-gui"/>
<user username="admin" password="********" roles="manager-gui" />
</tomcat-users>

Justin,
What exactly do you have in your "conf/tomcat-users.xml" file? If you
could include the contents of the file inline here, that would be
helpful.
Don't forget to redact passwords and other sensitive info.
