tomcat-users.xml and manager role
Hi, I have a 6.0.20 Tomcat binary distribution downloaded and untarred directly from the Tomcat site. My system is Ubuntu 8.04 with Java version 1.5.0_16. When I configure the manager role precisely as directed in the 401 Error message: role rolename=manager/ user username=tomcat password=s3cret roles=manager/ I am still unable to access the manager -- the basic auth dialog box just keeps coming back. I have restarted Tomcat after making this change. Looking at the documentation, I see discussion of MemoryRealm, but judging by the comments in server.xml this information is out of date: Tomcat is instead using UserDatabaseRealm. I can't find any solutions in the Tomcat wiki, mailing lists, or the internet at large. There is nothing that looks relevant or non-routine in the logs. Could someone please explain what is going on here, and what I need to do to fix it?

Yup, looks like I'm just retarded. Thanks.
