@RunAs on MDB and not finished alignation of ejb3 security

obrien Nov 5, 2007 11:27 AM

Hi,

I'm running JBoss AS 4.2.1.GA and having similar problems described in topic

http://www.jboss.org/?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=92450

When I'm trying to call security enabled session bean from MDB annotated with SecurityDomain and RunAs I'm still getting java.lang.IllegalStateException: No valid security context for the caller identity

I've validated that call to context.getCallerPrincipal() throws java.lang.IllegalStateException

I'm confused by duplicate tickets for this issue

http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-4198
vs
http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-4423

The first one is obviously closed as duplicate issue, but it's mentioned in 4.2.1 as fixed. Reason why I'm asking is because I can't find much of the changes (as tracked by subversion commits to JBAS-4423) in source code for 4.2.1.

Is it me missing something or the issue is still there?

Thanks a lot

So wait for the unresolved duplicated ticket to be resolved.

Well, this is one of the reasons why bother with 4.2.X as it's supposed to integrate key bits from Java EE 5 to JBoss 4 branch. To have aligned ejb3 security is important.

Do you think it can get to next minor release of 4.2.X? As JBoss AS 5 is targeted to Q1 2008 (hopefully) and then consequent wait before adopting it to the production environment this is serious stopper issue.

It depends on the EJB3 team. They are quite busy. If you can supply a patch for the problem in 4.2.x, then they can apply it.
