title: Tomcat 8 - tomcat-users.xml
body: <p>I've installed Tomcat 8 on an AWS instance and it starts and I can access it.
  The issue I'm having though is I've added the following to the tomcat-users.xml file but get a 403 error when I try to access the Server Status, Manager App, and Host Manager. I've stopped and restarted Tomcat a couple of times as well as rebooting the AWS instance but to no avail.</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;tomcat-users&gt;
  &lt;role rolename="manager-gui"/&gt;
  &lt;role rolename="manager-script"/&gt;
  &lt;role rolename="manager-jmx"/&gt;
  &lt;role rolename="manager-status"/&gt;
  &lt;role rolename="admin-gui"/&gt;
  &lt;user username="tomcat" password="pswd123"
    roles="manager-gui,manager-status,admin-gui"/&gt;
  &lt;user username="tomcattools" password="pswd123"/&gt; 
  &lt;/tomcat-users&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Thanks,
  Marc</p>
