    Authentication issue in AS7

    cs02rm0

      From the trace output it seems as though the DatabaseServerLoginModule is successfully authenticating, but I'm redirected back to the login page and it then indicate that authentication fails.

       

      I suspect that it might be caused by the ClassNotFoundException. Any ideas?

       

      Thanks in advance.

          Rich,  we need to take a look at this.  The DB login module can utilize a transaction manager from the app server. We need to evaluate the proper TM semantics for AS7. Let me get back to you.

              Looking at the code, the exception is logged at TRACE level and the correct transaction manager seems to be used. What does your web.xml security configurations look like and what URL are you accessing?

                And the security domain from standalone/configuration/standalone.xml:

                 

                <security-domain name="fizio" cache-type="default">

                    </authentication>

                  I have almost same configuration and in my case after entering correct username and password I get "The connection was reset" in Firefox after some seconds and "HTTP Status 408 - The time allowed for the login process has been exceeded." in IE 9 but the Google Chrome works fine and I could login!!!

                  Is it something about cookies?

                        I checked with Marcus who handled the AS7 security integration and he said the DBLM is not the issue here.  Jaikiran, any other ideas looking at his setup?

                            Turns out this is case of the allowed role-name that you have configured in your security-constraint of web.xml:

                            The role-name "*" is handled differently. Currently AS7 is configured for "strict" servlet spec compliance unlike previous version(s) of AS which were configured to "authOnly":

                            In a strict servlet compliance mode, if you are using role-name = * in the security-constraint, you should also have the security-role (s) declared within the web-app. So effectively * == all roles in the security-role element of the web-app. So if the authenticated user has those set of rules, then he/she's allowed access. So to get this working, just add the set of security-roles applicable in your application. Here's an example:

                            <security-constraint>
                              <web-resource-collection>
                              <web-resource-name>fizio</web-resource-name>
                              <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
                              <http-method>GET</http-method>
                              <http-method>POST</http-method>
                              </web-resource-collection>
                              <auth-constraint>
                              <role-name>*</role-name>
                              </auth-constraint>

                            As for whether you'll be allowed to configure the allRolesMode (that's what it's called) in AS7, like the previous versions, someone from the AS web team would know.
