Deploying web application war file on JBoss App Svr

[rkd123]

I'm trying to integrate our web application with JBoss Portal Server and app server 4.0.2. I deployed our web application war file on JBoss App Server's deploy folder. When I try to access our web application, it asks me to provide login credentials. I tried using admin/admin combination but it doesn't seem to work, causing "HTTP Status 401 Error - This request requires HTTP authentication ().". Any idea what credentials to use? I used the default options when installing the JBoss AS and am using Windows 2005 professional platform. Thanks in advance

Probably you enabled security at installation time. Try again, choose custom installation and make sure you don't enable security.

Thanks. Actually, when installing the JBoss app server, all you need to do is to unzip and extract the install files, so didn't have to change any user id/pwd. Not sure why it's not accepting the default admin/admin credentials - any one? Thanks

Is your application running within JBoss portal or is it an application running on its own?

Not sure why it's not accepting the default admin/admin credentials

Where have you got these defaults from? By default the app server is unsecured so wouldn't have defaults.

Have you checked to see if you already have anything installed an listening on port 8080 instead, double check the file {jboss.home}/server/default/log/server.log for any exceptions during start up. (Ignore any exceptions logged as DEBUG).

Can you check your login-config.xml under /server/default/conf folder? You application might be referring to the default login configuration used by the security domain that doesnt have any application-policy mentioned.

*************************************************************
<!-- The default login configuration used by any security domain that
does not have a application-policy entry with a matching name
-->
<application-policy name = "other">
<!-- A simple server login module, which can be used when the number
of users is relatively small. It uses two properties files:
users.properties, which holds users (key) and their password (value).
roles.properties, which holds users (key) and a comma-separated list of
their roles (value).
The unauthenticatedIdentity property defines the name of the principal
that will be used when a null username and password are presented as is
the case for an unuathenticated web client or MDB. If you want to
allow such users to be authenticated add the property, e.g.,
unauthenticatedIdentity="nobody"
-->

<login-module code = "org.jboss.security.auth.spi.UsersRolesLoginModule"
flag = "required" />

</application-policy>
*************************************************************

Create users.properties and roles.properties under conf folder and feed with some user data and check it.
