    SeamLoginModule Error invoking login method

    mrobinson28

      I am attempting to write (mostly copy from example s ;) an integration test for a simple login process. I am using Seam 1.2.1.GA, EEJB, hsqldb, etc. The only difference that I can see from the examples is that I am building w/ Maven2...hopefully this is not the issue :( When I execute the test I received the following exception:

      public class AuthenticatorTest extends SeamTest {
      
      
       @Test(groups = "integration")
       public void testLogin() throws Exception {
      
       new FacesRequest() {
      
       @Override
       protected void updateModelValues() throws Exception
       {
       assert !isSessionInvalid();
       setValue("#{identity.username}", "test");
       setValue("#{identity.password}", "test");
       }
      
       @Override
       protected void invokeApplication()
       {
       assert (Boolean) invokeMethod("#{identity.login}");
       }
      
       }.run();
       }
       }
      


      I didn't include the complete stack trace b/c it is quite long... but I can if it would help!

      Thanks,

          Hi,

          I am having exactly the same problem and I haven't been able to make any progress for quite some time now.
          Any help would be greatly appreciated!

            I've been struggling with this problem all day, and I just figured out what my problem was. Maybe yours is the same.

            I too started with the examples, specifically booking. In my case, I had been checking the differences between my log output and the booking example test output, and the key difference was that my entity manager and datasource were never deployed. I spent some time on that, and I was on the right track.

            Check your jboss-beans.xml file, in META-INF. When running in the container, it seemed okay to leave this blank (or rather, with empty deployment tag). In the eejb/microcontainer environment, I needed some kind of datasource bootstrap, like in booking/resources/META-INF/jboss-beans.xml. Then of course I needed an import.sql to load the data I needed for the test(s), since I'm no longer connecting to Oracle.

            That did the trick for me. Hope this helps.
