Additionally, we have a custom login.jsp page and are basically using
the Java api to authenticate users as shown below:
ARServerUser ctx=new ARServerUser(username,password,locale,server,port);
try
{
ctx.login();
auth= true;
}
catch(Exception e)
{
auth = false;
errMsg="Please check the username/password";
}
finally
{
ctx.clear();
}
if(auth)
{
String
url="/arsys/servlet/ViewFormServlet?form=APPFORM&server="+server+"&username="+username+"&pwd="+password+"&mode=create";
response.sendRedirect(url);
}
Also, just found out that the passwords work fine with the default
login.jspin the mid-tier. So could this problem have to do something
with the above
code using Java api or the server JVM??
Thanks,
Prasan.
