Hi,

Accept my apologies beforehand if this question had been asked before. I searched the forums but I did not find anything on this subject.

I am using JBoss Portal 2.6.2-GA with MySQL backend.
I have a portlet where the logged in user can add/delete and assign roles.

Code snippet from my ServiceBean:

private void addUser(){
 UserTransaction ut = (UserTransaction) (new InitialContext().lookup("java:comp/UserTransaction"));
 ut.begin();
 ((UserModule) (new InitialContext().lookup("java:/portal/UserModule")).createUser(userDetails.getUser(), userDetails.getConfirmPassword());
 ut.commit();
}

private void setUserProperties(){
 UserModule userModule = (UserModule) (new InitialContext())
 .lookup("java:/portal/UserModule");
 UserTransaction ut = (UserTransaction) (new InitialContext()
 .lookup("java:comp/UserTransaction"));
 ut.begin();
 User user = userModule.findUserByUserName(userDetails.getUser());
 ((MembershipModule)(new InitialContext()).lookup("java:portal/MembershipModule")).assignRoles(user, getRoleModule().findRolesByNames(new String[]{USERROLE_USER, USERROLE_LOUNGE}));
 if (userDetails.isInternalUser()){
 ((MembershipModule)(new InitialContext()).lookup("java:portal/MembershipModule")).assignRoles(user, getRoleModule().findRolesByNames(new String[]{USERROLE_INTERNAL}));
 }

 UserProfileModule profileModule = (UserProfileModule) (new InitialContext()).lookup("java:/portal/UserProfileModule");
 profileModule.setProperty(user, User.INFO_USER_ENABLED, true);
 profileModule.setProperty(user, User.INFO_USER_EMAIL_REAL, userDetails.getEmail());
 profileModule.setProperty(user, User.INFO_USER_NAME_FAMILY, userDetails.getFamilyName());
 profileModule.setProperty(user, User.INFO_USER_NAME_GIVEN, userDetails.getGivenName());
 ut.commit();
}

public RoleModule getRoleModule() {
 try {
 return (RoleModule) (new InitialContext())
 .lookup("java:/portal/RoleModule");

 } catch.....
}

UserDetails userDetails is just a custom POJO.

User is created, but neither the roles nor the properties are assigned to.

Anybody with some suggestions why the roles and properties are not saved?

Thanks in advance!
