Hi All,
I am a jboss newbie and need to a simple username/password challenge to pop up when someone accesses my web app deployed on jboss. I was looking at UsersRolesLoginModule. I am using jboss-3.2.3 with jetty-4.2.14.
All I did was the following 3 things.
1) server/MyServer/conf/login-conf.xml
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<!DOCTYPE policy PUBLIC
"-//JBoss//DTD JBOSS Security Config 3.0//EN"
"http://www.jboss.org/j2ee/dtd/security_config.dtd">
<policy>
<application-policy name = "myUsersRolesModule">
<authentication>
<login-module code="org.jboss.security.auth.spi.UsersRolesLoginModule"
flag = "true" >
<module-option name="hashAlgorithm">MD5</module-option>
</login-module>
</authentication>
</application-policy>
</policy>
2) Create a users.properties file in the conf folder with the following entry.
anand=kasi.
3) Create a roles.properties file in the conf folder with the following entry
anand=admin
When Jboss starts up, I get the following exception.
22:15:35,255 ERROR [PersistenceManager] Starting failed
java.lang.SecurityException: Invalid authentication attempt, principal=null
at org.jboss.resource.connectionmanager.BaseConnectionManager2.getSubjec
t(BaseConnectionManager2.java:647)
at org.jboss.resource.connectionmanager.BaseConnectionManager2.allocateC
onnection(BaseConnectionManager2.java:476)
Where do I set the principal. Is that the same as username????
What am I not doing or doing wrong?? Any suggestions/pointers are highly appreciated. Any alternate solutions?? The simpler the better.
Regards.
Andy.
