Problem with method-permission

[janist]

I'm using JBoss 2.4.4 with Tomcat 4.0.1.
I have defined security domain in EJB. All works fine, but I always get SecurityException (no method permissions) when calling method if argument for the defined method is an array.
For example, on method void setUserNames(String[] names);
I changed method parameter to java.io.Serializable and all worked fine.
What's the problem?

Hi,

Dunno :). Why don't you post the XML for your method permissions and the server-side stack trace you get for the exception.

Sorry :)
method call print("bla") was OK, but printArray(new String[]{"bla"}) was not OK

Here are stack trace
java.rmi.ServerException: RemoteException occurred in server thread; nested exception is:
java.rmi.RemoteException: checkSecurityAssociation; nested exception is:
java.lang.SecurityException: No method permissions assigned to method=printArray
java.rmi.RemoteException: checkSecurityAssociation; nested exception is:
java.lang.SecurityException: No method permissions assigned to method=printArray

Hi again,

You've used the wrong syntax for arrays. It should be

java.lang.String[]

not

[Ljava.lang.String

Also, not that it matters now, but you've supplied the client side stack trace which is generally less useful for tracking problems. If you want to get useful feedback on a problem, please supply the server side stack from the log file (in the log directory).

Luke.
