Because you haven't told Tomcat that those pages need to be protected by authentication. Do that, and Tomcat will handle the whole process for you.

I'm only looking to have a user log in when they seek to do something, like post a comment, on the page. -Original Message- From: Mark Thomas [mailto:ma...@apache.org] Sent: 22 Sep 2010 15 43 To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: Issue with logging in to Tomcat 6.0 On 22/09/2010 06:27, Martin O'Shea wrote: But when I try to login to Tomcat, I am given message 'Invalid direct reference to form login page' but do not quite see why.
