    Seam Security Problem

    g00se24

      Hello,

      i tried to deploy a minimal SEAM project which only consists of a login page. The problem is that I would like to use a own written build.xml script, which is already stable running.

      The problem:

      12:25:35,281 ERROR [SeamLoginModule] Error invoking login method

      What am I doing wrong? All neccessary libaries are in place. Am I missing some configuration files? Has anybody an idea?
      If neccessary I would send you my full project structure.

      Thank in advance

          From the log it looks like component "test" cannot be found. When your app starts up, is it listed among the other components? Do you have a seam.properties in your jar file?

            Thanks, but
            i have packed the seam.properties into the root of jar...

            Yesterday evening I recreated my workspace with a seam-gen.
            I know it's a workaround...

            Would you like to at the source of the old project?
