    Portlet Login

    georgy

      Hi


      I am trying to develop a login portlet. I did (i think) everything described in the related wiki page :

      http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=PortletLogin.

      I created two servlets : one to save login/password in session and the second to do the auto login. My configuration files are :

      login.jsp which is displayed when the doView() method of my portletLogin is called


      <form enctype='application/x-www-form-urlencoded' method='post' action='savelogin'>
      <input type='text' name='username'>
      <input type='password' name='password'>
      <input type='submit' value='login'>
      </form>
      


      SaveLogin which is the servlet that should store login and password in session

       protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request,
       HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
      
      
       String username = request.getParameter("username");
       String password = request.getParameter("password");
       request.getSession().setAttribute("username", username);
       request.getSession().setAttribute("password", password);
       String autologinURL = request.getContextPath() + "/auth/";
       response.sendRedirect(response.encodeRedirectURL(autologinURL));
      
       }
      



      AutoLogin which is the servlet that dshould do the auto login
      
       String username = request.getParameter("username");
       String password = request.getParameter("password");
       if (username == null && password == null)
       {
       username = (String)request.getSession().getAttribute("username");
       password = (String)request.getSession().getAttribute("password");
       }
       String url ="j_security_check?j_username=" + username + "&j_password=" + password;
       url = response.encodeRedirectURL(url);
       response.sendRedirect(url);
      



      and the web.xml

      <?xml version="1.0"?>

       "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
       "http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd">
      <web-app>
      
      
       <servlet>
       <servlet-name>SaveLogin</servlet-name>

       </servlet>
      
       <servlet>
       <servlet-name>AutoLogin</servlet-name>

       <servlet-class>servlet.AutoLogin</servlet-class>
       </servlet>
      
       <servlet-mapping>
       <servlet-name>AutoLogin</servlet-name>
       <url-pattern>/authoLogin</url-pattern>
       </servlet-mapping>
      
       <servlet-mapping>
       <servlet-name>SaveLogin</servlet-name>
       <url-pattern>/savelogin</url-pattern>
       </servlet-mapping>
      
      </web-app>
      



      Here is the problem : after i specify my login/pwd and validate, the doPost() method of SaveLogin is not called. I am sent to the url http://localhost:8080/portal/portal/default/savelogin and nothing else happends.

      Does anyone have any idea what the problem is ? The '<url-pattern>' maybe?
