Hi Florian --

This is covered by the UPGRADING document in the source tarball's root directory. Please let me know if the docs in that file are not clear enough (or even better, edit it).

The short answer is that JSPWiki 2.8 wires up its own JAAS login configuration, and the old jspwiki.jaas file is not ever needed or loaded. The same is true for the java.security.auth.login.config property. It is NOT needed any more.

Hi developers, especially Andrew,

I think some clarification is needed on configuring JSPWiki security.
In particular I'm thinking of when specifying
-Djava.security.auth.login.config==.../conf/jspwiki.jaas is needed and
when not. I know that it was needed in the past, but then Andrew did
some changes to the AAA subsystem and now it is only needed in some
cases (AFAIK).

Regards,
Florian
