Description:
|
Context
- Tomcat 6 with multiple hosts with one application per host (DSpace is one of them).
- Local SMTP server with no Authentication required
Problem
As the Javamail API documentation[1] states, the method getDefaultInstance() - used in DSpace - returns an object shared among the JVM context. If, for some reason, another application (not DSpace) in tomcat refreshes the Authenticator instance within the default session, DSpace will start getting errors when trying to send emails (throwing SecurityException).
Solution
- A simple solution to this problem would be replacing all Session.getDefaultInstance() calls by Session.getInstance().
- Another (more efficient) solution would be defining a singleton, calling the Session.getInstance using some wrapper that would replace all the Session.getDefaultInstance() calls.
