Use something like this to update your tomcat users.

Tomcat users file is located inside conf folder of tomcat installation. To find the path of catalina_base you can use the command: ps aux | grep catalina You can find one of the values -Dcatalina.base=/usr/local/Cellar/tomcat/9.0.37/libexec

Most Important:

Don't forget to remove the comment lines from the tomcat-users.xml just before the start of the roles.
