Unable to Run Programs From Apache Tomcat

[arndtmatt]

I have NetBeans installed using Apache Tomcat 7. I try to run a program and am prompted with the Tomcat Manager Application and asked for a username and password.

First off I am unable to change the password under the properties of the Apache Tomcat server. I can change the username but no matter what the password always stays the same. I edited the tomcat-user.xml file both in the Catalina home & base but it doesn't seem to make a difference. I still cannot run anything from with NetBeans. I get Deployment error: Access to Tomcat server has not been authorized. Set the correct username and password with the "manager-script" role in the Tomcat customizer in the Server Manager.
See the server log for details.

This is what I have setup in the tomcat-user.xml file


<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>

</tomcat-users>

Any help would be great. Also, I can get into apache through Localhost but unable to access any of the support documents, I get:

HTTP Status 404 - /docs/realm-howto.html

Any help would be great,

In the Tomcat properties dialog in NetBeans click the "show" button
beside the password to see it in clear text. Then copy that password
into tomcat-user.xml as your password.
