Hi guys,

good work !!!!

What's the compatibility with JBoss 4.0.5 ?

I'm testing the Beta1 release under JBoss 4.0.5 and saw a problem because the jboss log4j-boot.jar is incompatible with Logger.trace() that is being used in the negotiation code...

Tried finding something related to it in the forum but didn't find, so I'm writing here !

Many Thanks !
Eduardo

Hi Edwardo,

Yes JBoss Negotiation does require JBoss 4.2.x or JBoss 5.0.x, these versions use a later version of Log4j that provides the trace() method without needing to use the JBoss Logger.

I will have a look for the next release to see if the logging can be made compatible with JBoss 4.0.5.GA but that is not really one of the target AS versions.

Thanks very much Darran,

I just needed to be sure !

I had to replace log.trace for log.debug, than I ran without problems on 4.0.5.

But it was version Beta... I didn't try with the new version and I saw that the new one has much more classes !!!

The ideal would be to have an updated version of log4j-boot.jar for JBoss 4.0.5... supporting the Logger.trace method....

Anyway, thanks very much !!!

I'll have a look and check what's the best option for me !!!

Am trying it on JBoss 5 and its nearly working... Main issue we had was a reverse lookup of IP of our KDC resulted in a different server name...

Using the negotiation toolkit, basic negotiation and security domain tests work, but the secured test results in a 401 page.

I have server logs and config but is this the right place to post questions and if not where should they go ?

David,

This is the right forum for your questions although I would suggest a new thread to track your specific problems.

Do you have an actual error being logged during the failed negotiation?

Darran,
when can we expect Negotiation into the EAP?

Darran, Anil, etc,

The download page for PicketBox is completely empty for me.  I see a link to the GPL and an advertisement.  No downloads are available.  I need to download the jboss negotiation stuff.

Know what's going on?
