I have configured some roles in my web.xml file like below;



And I have also adjustes my server's user configuration xml( Tomcat )

tomcat-users.xml extract




However when I tried to call an URL like below;

http://localhost:8080/ApacheProject/securezone/apage.html

First I get a basic login screen and I wrote my password but the server does not accept my password and after some try It gives a HTTP Status 401 - This request requires HTTP authentication ().

page to me.

What am I doing wrong here? Everything seems okay to me!!

Hi Anut

It�s works.
You have wrote that browser prompt the login/password and you entered these information. But you have gotten 401 error after some attempts. So, if the configuration was wrong, probably the app didn�t start, and you cound see an error at tomcat�s log.
This error message, 401, represents a wrong user and/or password entered by user.(See at http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html, for http messages)
To see the headers informations use LiveHttpHeaders (http://livehttpheaders.mozdev.org/) for Mozila Firefox.

Regards
Phillipe Lemos

I think instead of clicking on the submit button, you are clicking on the cancel button.

did you configure tomcat to use the tomcat-users.xml file as one of the Resource elements? chances are it doesn't have a realm configured just yet.

How can I configure it ?
It is normally stayed at
apache-tomcat-6.0.18\conf\tomcat-users.xml

And I did not make any other configuration ? And it is content ;

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<tomcat-users>
<role rolename="Guest" />
<role rolename="Member" />
<user username="anthony" password="12345678" roles="Guest,Member" />
</tomcat-users>
