WAR installs incorrectly

Closed this issue · 2 comments

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Deploy WebGoat-5.2.war.
2. Visit /WebGoat/attack and login with guest/guest.

)


What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The valid username/password is rejected.


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
v5.2 (Tomcat 5.5; JDK 1.6) on Ubuntu Linux


Please provide any additional information below.
Using any account registered in tomcat-users.xml turned the 401 into a 404
until I deleted the relevant account (and re-registering it didn't change
anything).  When following the generic instructions involving the ZIP
instead of the WAR, I encountered no problems.

Oh, and I also tried renaming it to WebGoat.war and nothing improved.
