Re: Spring Security and Struts2 Using tiles

[Alberto A. Flores]

I had to put those efforts on the side as it was in a prototype and 
proof of concept phase. However, I have just began (today) to officially 
make serious effort into making it work (if at all possible) for our 
project. I should have a better answer by the end of the day... but any 
feedback would be much appreciated...

I was able to get this working with Acegi, by setting the Dispatcher property
in web.xml
    <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
        <dispatcher>REQUEST</dispatcher>
        <dispatcher>INCLUDE</dispatcher>
        <dispatcher>FORWARD</dispatcher>
        </filter-mapping>

But, now when i try this with Spring Security 2.0.1, i am facing the same
problem as you have described here. Have you found any solution so far?

Folks,

My understanding is that Spring Security does not secure resources on 
*forwards* (I believe tiles2 do forward/chaining). In an application 
using Struts2, Spring and Tiles2, these forwards work just fine. Has 
anyone had success using these three frameworks together using Spring 
Security? I tried it today and It turned out that the security tag 
(http://www.springframework/security/tags/):

   <security:authorization property="principal.username"/>

never fetches anything. Furthermore, the code:

   SecurityContextHolder.getContext().getAuthentication()

returns null (in the forwarded jsp page). Has anyone know what to do in 
this case? I'm beginning to think I can not use Spring Security at all.
