jaasAuthenticator not found

davidtwebb Nov 10, 2012 12:15 PM

I have installed the latest jBPM distribution and when I change my beans.xml to use the JAAS authentication, I get the following error:

{noformat}
12:08:58,454 ERROR [org.jboss.seam.security.IdentityImpl] (http-localhost-127.0.0.1-8080-2) No authenticator with name [jaasAuthenticator] was found
12:08:58,455 ERROR [org.jboss.seam.security.IdentityImpl] (http-localhost-127.0.0.1-8080-2) Login failed: org.jboss.seam.security.AuthenticationException: An Authenticator could not be located
          at org.jboss.seam.security.IdentityImpl.authenticate(IdentityImpl.java:221) [seam-security-3.1.0.Final.jar:]
{noformat}

Here is my beans.xml

{code}
  <security:IdentityImpl>
    <s:modifies/>
 
 
    <!-- No real authentication: demo authentication for demo purposes -->
    <!--<security:authenticatorClass>org.drools.guvnor.server.security.DemoAuthenticator</security:authenticatorClass>-->
 
 
    <!-- JAAS based authentication -->
    <security:authenticatorName>jaasAuthenticator</security:authenticatorName>
 
 
    <!-- IDM based authentication (supports LDAP, see Seam 3 and PicketLink IDM documentation) -->
    <!--<security:authenticatorClass>org.jboss.seam.security.management.IdmAuthenticator</security:authenticator>-->
  </security:IdentityImpl>
  
 
 
 
 
  <security:jaas.JaasAuthenticator>
    <s:modifies/>
    <!--
      The following one will use the jaas configuration called "other",
      which in jboss AS means you can use properties files for users.
    -->
    <!--<jaasConfigName>other</jaasConfigName>-->
          <security:jaasConfigName>drools-guvnor</security:jaasConfigName>
  </security:jaas.JaasAuthenticator>
{code}

I have been reading articles and trying to resolve this for the last 3 hours. Can you please tell me what I am missing? Thank you.

Hey David,

I had the same issue - this two steps worked for me:

1) beans.xml:

<security:IdentityImpl>
    <s:modifies/>
    <security:authenticatorClass>org.jboss.seam.security.jaas.JaasAuthenticator</security:authenticatorClass>
</security:IdentityImpl>

<security:jaas.JaasAuthenticator>
    <security:jaasConfigName>drools-guvnor</security:jaasConfigName>
    <s:modifies />
</security:jaas.JaasAuthenticator>

<component name="org.jboss.seam.security.roleBasedPermissionResolved">
    <s:modifies/>
    <property name="enableRoleBaseAuthorization">true</property>
</component>

It is really annoying that the config suggestions in beans.xml are not updated to newer versions.

Source: http://docs.jboss.org/seam/3/security/latest/reference/en-US/html/security-authentication.html#d0e212

2) I added a modified seam-security jar to the war file (WEB-INF/lib) which is available here: https://community.jboss.org/message/772921#772921

Of course you have to remove the old version (3.1.0).

Regards,
Sebastian
