[Stephen Coy (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-5758?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12733554#comment-12733554 ] 

Stephen Coy commented on AS7-5758:
----------------------------------

Well, there you go.

A new clean user also works perfectly.

That made me ask myself where the "admin" username was coming from, as the admin user I had created was "steve".

So I deleted all the passwords for localhost that Safari had saved, as well as any that I could find in the keychain. 

Following that, the admin console now appears to be working for my original user login as well.

In theory, Safari/MacOS was associating host:port with a user/password combination, but perhaps it was screwing this up somewhere and auto-responding to a 401 with another server's credentials.

I've had a lot of different local servers running on my Macs over the years, and the localhost credentials had piled up somewhat.
