Form based auth with jetty

[kiuma]

Hi, I was just starting using form based auth under Catalina and jboss 3.0.1, when I decided to download jboss3.0.2.

Surprisingly JBoss3.0.2 is deployed only with jetty and since I'm a newbie, I've said to me with no many questions, Ok it shold be better!

Now my login.jsp based on j_security_check, doesn't work anymore.
I don't know where to get docs&samples.
Please help me.

Apparently this is a jetty bug. See

I believe it's fixed in the CVS version.

(I can see that there are replies, but not what they are :-( ... but anyway)

It seems that jetty does not handle the login correctly if the
<realm-name>My Realm or something like that </realm-name>

is missing from the web.xml file when defining security.

(I got null-pointer errors when using FORM based security and forgetting realm-name, when using BASIC it gave an error message about realm-name missing.)

The realm-name is optional is the web.xml so I think this is a bug in jetty.
