Tomcat (5.0.25 & 5.5.15) manager webapp and UserDatabaseRealm and browser caching
I suddenly encountered Http 403 problem when trying to
access my manager app
(http://localhost:8080/manager/status)
0) I am using Firefox (1.0.7) browser, the app worked
fine until the one ocassion I typed in the wrong
password.
1) I see no error messages in any of the log files
2) I do not see the webapp initialization messages
such as I did before this event, e.g
2006-03-06 23:13:45
StandardContext[/manager]HTMLManager: init:
Things I did, yet I still get 403:
1) Restarted Tomcat several times does not cure this.
2) Removed all files from
%CATALINA_BASE%\work\Catlina\localhost\
and restarted Tomcat yet this doesn't cure it.
3) Removed all cookies related to the http://localhost
yet this doesn't work.
The "manager" app does work when I run up IE browser.
Given the things I did there should be no possibility
of "cached user across session serialization".
[Q] So what could it be that gives the "illusion" of a
cached user to the browser ?

firefox can cache passwords as well - and particularly seems to cache
them in a unexpected way, when moving from different arees on the same
host. Try (in firefox 1.5 anyway) in Options: Privacy : Passwords : View
Saved passwords
