Solutions above probably solved your problem.The locked user solution tipped me off on my issue.

Something weird I noticed... Don't know how it happened.

After installing a new tomcat7 I ended up with a "tomcat-users.xml" file owned by user root and group root.

I found out because catalina.out contains a few lines like "javax.naming.NamingException: /var/lib/tomcat7/conf/tomcat-users.xml (Permission denied)"

After changing file ownership to user "root" & group "tomcat7" fixed my login issue.
