Set the correct username and password with the "manager-script" role in the Tomcat

Question

I know this has been asked many before. But I have already placed my user to role "manager-script".

I keep getting this when trying to deploy:

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.

My D:\DEV\apache-tomcat-7.0.47\conf\tomcat-users.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<tomcat-users>
    <role rolename="manager-script"/>
    <user username="user" password="user" roles="manager-script"/>
</tomcat-users>

The server starts just fine without errors from netbeans but when I go to deploy, it keep asking me for the credentials that has "manager-script".

What I have tried:

1. Removing all other Apache installs/directories.
2. Rebooting.
3. Double, triple and quadruple checking the username and password (user@user).

What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

same problem.. fixéd it by adding:

<tomcat-users> <role rolename="manager-script"/> <user username="user" password="user" roles="manager-script"/> </tomcat-users>

to C:\Program files\apache-tomcat-7.0.47\conf\tomcat-users.xml

and remember to run netbeans as administrator.
