isCallerInRole throws IlligalStateException

[drfranknfurter]

When I try to use isCallerInRole the following exception is thrown

java.lang.IllegalStateException: isCallerInRole() called with no security context.
Check that a security-domain has been set for the application.
 at org.jboss.ejb3.BaseSessionContext.isCallerInRole(BaseSessionContext.java:215)

But when I use the @RolesAllowed annotation it works the way it should. I generally prefer to use the annotations but there are situations where the role required is not constant. For those scenarios isCallerInRole comes in handy.

JBoss version: 4.2.2.GA
LoginModule:

org.jboss.security.auth.spi.UsersRolesLoginModule

and a custom login module as well.

Any help will be appreciated.

You might need to specify a @SecurityDomain annotation for each of your EJBs.

It was something similar, I specified the domain for the web-tier, but not for the ejb container. I had to add <security-domain> to jboss.xml

Thanks for the help.
