Sorry to bump this, but my boss is starting to get cranky and I haven't found anything helpful.
Also, what is the correct way to specify the error message on the login screen when an exception is thrown from an AuthenticationHandler? Some user conditions (account locked) should result in the user being bounced to the login screen with an error message. I know I can specify that message in the exception thrown from the AuthenticationHandler, but it's a user-level message and shouldn't be buried in java code. Can I do something in login-webflow.xml that adds those messages so I can tap messages_en.properties to read them in for display on the CAS login screen?

Right now I'm doing this: public final class MycompanyAuthenticationHandler extends AbstractJdbcUsernamePasswordAuthenticationHandler { private boolean authenticate(final String encryptedPassword) throws AuthenticationException { ... if (REDIRECT.containsKey(this.accountType)) { final String redirect = REDIRECT.get(this.accountType); LOGGER.debug("Redirecting to {} for account type {}", redirect, this.accountType); throw new AuthenticationException("","", redirect); } ... } That lets me leverage login-webflow.xml to get a state other than success. Is there any other way to get another state besides throwing the AuthenticationException? It gets logged as an ERROR with stack trace, which is displeasing because it's neither unexpected nor a failure and the stack trace is meaningless.
