Configuring users
All,
I'm trying to configure a user to use the manager web application. I have
read the comments in the tomcat-users.xml file on my server and added the
following two lines to the file:
<role rolename="manager"/>
<user username="user" password="pass" roles="manager"/>
I have saved the file and restarted the server, but am still unable to get
to the manager web application. When I try to browse to the manager web
application at http://localhost:8084/manager/, I get a 404 report stating
the requested resource is not available. What am I missing?

That URL is incomplete. Try
http://localhost:8084/manager/html

Thank you. That was it. I'm using NetBeans and was trying to start the
server within the IDE. Why can't they just use the scripts themselves? Oh
well. I'm up and running now. Thanks Mark and Charles for your help.

Also tell us how you're launching Tomcat. If you're doing it from inside
and IDE - don't; IDEs often substitute their own configurations rather than
using the one you specify. Use the provided scripts and see what happens.

The URL fro your previous e-mails was connecting to port 8084.
http://localhost:8080/manager/html should give you what you expect.

OK. Moving in the right direction.
Clearly, from the URL you provided, the default server.xml isn't being
used. Has the Realm definition been changed? A copy of the complete
server.xml (less comments with any sensitive info replaced with ***) is
the next thing to look at.

Thanks, that's better. I get prompted for a username and password, but it
won't accept the values I've configured. No, I don't have caps lock turned
on.

Sorry. I'm using tomcat 6.0.26. I made sure my changes are not within
comments. The full file is:

Telling us which Tomcat version and providing the complete contents of
tomcat-users.xml would be a start. Without that, my best guess is you
didn't spot the comment markers in the default file.
