Dashboard: permission denied for role created using Synchron

[jaded]

Hi,
Am using a custom login module to authenticate users. The users and roles are then being synchronized to the jboss portal using the SynchronizingLoginModule.

This is working fine as i am able to view the roles and the users created using the "Admin" portlet.

However for all users / roles created by this mechanism, the user is not able to view his "Dashboard".
On clicking the "Dashboard" link i get the following error on the error page:

Access to the specified resource () has been forbidden.

And the JBoss Portal console shows the following stack trace:

12:05:02,530 ERROR [DefaultPortalControlPolicy] Rendering portlet window produced an error
org.jboss.portal.core.controller.AccessDeniedException: View permission not granted has denied access: dashboard:/portalsu

Q1) Is this a permission that i need to explicitly enable for all users / role. If so how do i do this, as i can find no reference in the UserGuide or the Reference Guide to this permission.
Q2) If not, is this a bug with my Custom Login Module or the SynchronizingLoginModule.

I am using JBoss portal version : 2.6.6 GA bundled
regards,

[sportsbaby1980]

I encounter the same problem.

I think it's a bug.

I should keep debug until it is resolved.

[sportsbaby1980]

I use jboss portal 2.66ga, jboss4.23-jdk6 and mysql5.

[sportsbaby1980]

I use cas as SSO solution.
if logined as admin,and use admin portal,
when turn back to the other portal from admin portal,
the fatal error will happen.

[javaspack]

Was this ever resolved?

I have the same problem on jboss portal 2.7.2 bundled with JBoss 4.2.3.

I also use a custom login module because I do SSO.

But it doesn't matter who I am logged in as (even an Admin user), I still can't access the dashboard.

[javaspack]

After looking around in the JIRA issues, I found this:
https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBPORTAL-2261
which is very similar to the problem I am experiencing. I use my own login module, and then the SynchronizingLoginModule (not LDAP)


<login-module code="org.jboss.portal.identity.auth.SynchronizingLoginModule" flag="optional">
<module-option name="synchronizeIdentity">false</module-option>
<module-option name="synchronizeRoles">false</module-option>
<module-option name="preserveRoles">true</module-option>
<module-option name="additionalRole">Authenticated</module-option>
<module-option name="defaultAssignedRole">User</module-option>
<module-option name="userModuleJNDIName">java:/portal/UserModule</module-option>
<module-option name="roleModuleJNDIName">java:/portal/RoleModule</module-option>
<module-option name="membershipModuleJNDIName">java:/portal/MembershipModule</module-option>
<module-option name="userProfileModuleJNDIName">java:/portal/UserProfileModule</module-option>
</login-module>


When I try it, the client give this error:
HTTP Status 403 - Access to the specified resource () has been forbidden.

On the JBoss side, my stack track shows:

Is there something I'm missing. Doesn't the Synchronize login module add the 'User' role which gives rights. I have verified that User is part of my Roles, but I still don't have permission.
