Screen shot.

I'm running Netbeans 8.2 on a mac.  In my project i had a JNDI LDAP realm defined in /META_INF/context.xml.  Our security folks asked me to move it out of the project into CATALINA_BASE/conf/context.xml.

Upon doing this netbeans continually prompts me for the Tomcat Manager username and password whenever I try to run from netbeans.

If i put this LDAP realm definition back into META_INF/context.xml everything works fine.  VERY strange bug.

I have two tomcats on linux that i've pushed the war to with a similar configuration and they work fine.
