Issue Type: Bug Bug
Affects Versions: 2.3.2
Assignee: Christian Mueller
Components: Security
Created: 23/May/13 8:33 AM
Description:

The GeoServer start url http://.../geoserver matches the default security chain (handling OGC services). The request is finally redirected to

http://.../geoserver/web.

As a consequence, http://.../geoserver should match the web filter chain.

A more detailed description is here

http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=CAK2H3M00bGDhRfh_UToJjwuPczkihbW_UPSk64cvakTqVZQRog%40mail.gmail.com&forum_name=geoserver-devel

The Web filter chain has the following ant patterns

/web/**
/gwc/rest/web/**

Adding the pattern

/

solves this problem.

Unfortunately a data directory migration is required. (A small one, but it is one).

Workaround for 2.3.x series:

On the GeoServer "Authentication" page, click on the filter chain called "web".

There is a list of ant patterns.

/web/*,/gwc/rest/web/*

Change the list to

/web/*,/gwc/rest/web/*,/

Click close. Back on the "Autentication" page, click "Save". Finished.
