No security context set in EJB

[mhellkamp]

I am using the JBoss-2.4.3_Tomcat-3.2.3 release and am having problems accessing the principal from a session bean. I am logging into my web app using the UsernamePasswordLoginModule and then referencing a page that calls a session bean. The session bean needs to access the caller principal (via a call to getCallerPrincipal()) but when I try to do this I get a "No security context set" exception. This exact same web application works on both Orion and Weblogic, so I know the app should be working. Any ideas?

I figured it out. The docs were a bit unclear (at least to me) on the jboss.xml file. I thought this was an application level configuration, but it is really an ejb-jar level configuration. My bad...

Hi,

I am facing the same problem. Will you please tell me what did you find out that was wrong.

Thanks

define your security domain in the jboss.xml like
<security-domain>java:/jaas/yourdomain</security-domain>
