Tomcat does not come with the username and password for the 
administration screen pre-set.  You need to setup a username and 
password in the conf/tomcat-users.xml file and give that user the 
'admin' role.  This is where the username and password you enter on the 
administration console's login screen is checked against.

Do the same as above except give the user you setup the 'manager' role.
