             Bug #: 52846
           Summary: Programmatic login using UserDatabaseRealm returns 403
                    error.
           Product: Tomcat 7
           Version: trunk
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: Catalina
        AssignedTo: dev@tomcat.apache.org
        ReportedBy: kfuj...@apache.org
    Classification: Unclassified


IMHO,HttpServletRequest#login does not need to define a <login-config>.
NonLoginAuthenticator is used when <login-config> is not specified in
HttpServletRequest#login. 

When UserDatabaseRealm is used, not GenericPrincipal but Memory User is set to
a session.
In AuthenticatorBase#invoke, principal registered into a session is set to a
request. 
Because MemoryUser is set to a request as principal, RealmBase#hasRole always
returns false. 
As a result, 403 error is returned.
