Referenced file (not page itself) is shown after login

Hello!

What I use: JBoss 4.0.3SP1, JSP, Spring 1.2.7

I have a strange problem: if I try to access a secure URL without being logged on, I get login form, and then I am not shown the page requested, but the last file (e.g., image) mentioned on that page.

For example, welcome.jsp refers to two files: style.css and logo.jpg (in this order). If I try to access (before login) welcome.html, I get login form. After that (successful login) I see logo.jpg (even URL in address bar is changed to logo.jpg). Then I reenter the correct URL (welcome.html) and the page is shown as it should. If I remove image from the page, then I get style.css after login.

Probably I did something wrong configuring security. Has anybody met this behaviour?

Thank you,

Igor

Show your code (web.xml, jsp, etc.)

Hello!

I found the reason. login.jsp also refers to the same style.css and logo.jpg. These files are also secured, so login.jsp actually didn't use any style and didn't show any picture, but after a successful login showed the last referred file (picture, in this case).

The solution is to move any files used by login.jsp to unsecure location.

Sorry, quite simple mistake. Thank you for your attention,

Igor
