can't login with correct username and password

[Jeroen Nouws]

Hi guys,

i'm building a webapp with a protected area i've defined a security constraint in web.xml and use a datasource realm which i defined in context.xml

below you'll find excerpts from the code in both web.xml and context.xml

can anyone see if there's something wrong?

thanks a lot

<Contex path="/FileUploadPoC">
	<Resource name="jdbc/fileupload" auth="Container"
	maxActive="100" maxIdle="30" maxWait="10000"
	username="root" password=" "
	driverClassName="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"
	url="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/fileupload"
	logAbandoned="true" removeAbandoned="true"
	removeAbandonedTimeout="60" type="javax.sql.DataSource" />

	<Realm 	className="org.apache.catalina.realm.DataSourceRealm" debug="99"
	dataSourceName="jdbc/fileupload" localDataSource="true"
	userTable="userpass" userNameCol="username" userCredCol="pass"
	userRoleTable="userrole" roleNameCol="role" />
</Contex>

web.xml

  <login-config>
    <auth-method>BASIC</auth-method>
    <realm-name>Please login to acces the fileuploader</realm-name>
  </login-config>
  <security-role>
    <description>Sales dept.</description>
    <role-name>sales</role-name>
  </security-role>
  <security-constraint>
    <web-resource-collection>
      <web-resource-name>Protected Area</web-resource-name>
      <url-pattern>/JSP/*</url-pattern>
    </web-resource-collection>
    <auth-constraint>
      <role-name>sales</role-name>
    </auth-constraint>
  </security-constraint>

I'm not especially familiar with those files, but is the main element of the first one really supposed to be named "Contex" and not "Context"?
