Security - Simple Realm/JDBC Realm - Pls Help
Hi I am relatively new to tomcat and I hope someone can help me. I am using JDBC realm to protect parts of my web app. Everything including authentication was working great on my stand alone tomcat server. Recently I moved my web app to apache/tomcat installation. I configured apache/tomcat as per docs. Everything is working fine except the authentication module. The login screen pops up correctly when I try to access a protected URL. But when I type in the user name and password it gives me a "404 not found URL "j_security_check". It seems to be looking under "web_app_doc_root/"j_security_check". I have checked the server.xml and the web.xml and find nothing amiss. Am I missing some class path/required library, Can someone point me to what I am missing? Thank You very much Suchi __ Do You Yahoo!? Get email at your own domain with Yahoo! Mail. http://personal.mail.yahoo.com/
Re: Security - Simple Realm/JDBC Realm - Pls Help
Hi I finally got the Form based authentication to work with Apache/tomcat. Going through the archives I found a lot of questions about this problem but no complete answer, so may be this will help somebody out there. To get this to work, I did the following: 1. Need to use ajp13. I could not get it to work with ajp12. So, Add/Uncomment the following in server.xml. Connector className="org.apache.tomcat.service.PoolTcpConnector" Parameter name="handler" value="org.apache.tomcat.service.connector.Ajp13ConnectionHandler"/ Parameter name="port" value="8009"/ /Connector 2. You need to add the JkMount for j_security_check so that apache knows it exists. Add the following line JKMount whatever_pathto_login/j_security_check ajp13 3. Since mod_jk.conf.auto is auto generated the above addition will be lost if you add it there. So, add the JKMount line to a static configuration file - easiest is to copy the mod_jk.conf.auto to another file and add the JKMount line. 4. Include this static file in your apache's httpd.conf. 5. If you have more than one login page, you might have to add a JKMount statement for every login page Suchi --- Suchi sekar [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi I am relatively new to tomcat and I hope someone can help me.

JDBC realm - Pls help
Hi I am a new user of tomcat and I am having trouble getting the JDBC realm to work. I am using Tomcat 3.2.1 on Windows2000 and I am testing a small sample application that I wrote. Everything including the user authentication works great when I use the "SimpleRealm". But, When I tried to use the JDBC realm the server will not start, it just dies with no error messages, no log messages. I have made absolutely no other changes except comment out the SimpleRealm and include the JDBC realm information to the server.xml and added the Oracle driver in tomcat/lib. The following is the relevant portion of my server.xml !-- RequestInterceptor className="org.apache.tomcat.request.SimpleRealm" debug="0" / -- RequestInterceptor className="org.apache.tomcat.request.JDBCRealm" debug="99" driverName="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver" connectionURL="jdbc:oracle:thin:@testserver:1521:TEST3" connectionName="readonly" connectionPassword="nowrites" userTable="usernames" userNameCol="username" userCredCol="password" userRoleTable="userroles" roleNameCol="rolename" / Can someone please tell me what I am missing.
