Developer notes:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
Local installation as regular user (rather than local administrator) can simplify Tomcat configuration and access.
</li>
<li>
Ensure that <code>CATALINA_HOME</code> points to root directory of current Tomcat installation.
</li>
<li>
Troubleshooting in progress: not working in Netbeans&nbsp;12.3, backtracking to Netbeans&nbsp;12.2 and OpenJDK&nbsp;14.02,
still no joy...
</li>
<li>
No plans yet to upgrade to Tomcat&nbsp;10 since package and class invocation is different.
</li>
</ul>
<p>
Example information for <i>conf/tomcat-users.xml</i> configuration file follows.
Note that any username must also be configured in the Tomcat installation itself.

<p>
Under Windows operating system, better results have been obtained when installing Tomcat as local user
rather than requiring administrator permissions.
