Getting 403 error trying to config ECP on Tomcat

Scott:

I will take a look at the container logs again. Nothing was jumping out. 
I was having trouble initially getting Tomcat startup to recognize
the login.config and there were some errors but I thought I killed them
all. 

The role config has proven temperamental and I will admit it exceeds 
my understanding a bit. I tried leaving it out and variations of
wildcards without success. I will try and poke around at logging some
more and see if that points me a direction.

Thanks,
Mark

Does your container log say anything?

The role is what stands out for me since I've never used it. I guess those
role properties in the JAAS config are supposed to make all that work, but
I would guess that's the culprit if it's binding.

I would try turning up logging for the JAAS module at the container layer.
That can be tricky of course, but is usually possible.
