Hi all,
I am trying to implement container managed security for my web application. In
the web.xml, I am specifing the following section:
<security-constraint>
<web-resource-collection>
<web-resource-name>A Resource</web-resource-name>
<url-pattern>*.jsp</url-pattern>
<http-method>GET</http-method>
<http-method>POST</http-method>
</web-resource-collection>
<user-data-constraint>
<transport-guarantee>NONE</transport-guarantee>
</user-data-constraint>
<auth-constraint>
<role-name>users</role-name>
</auth-contraint>
</security-constraint>
<security-role>
<description>A role</description>
<role-name>users</role-name>
</security-role>
<login-config>
<auth-method>BASIC</auth-method>
</login-config>
I am just trying something simple here but when I deploy this, the server
returns a 500 Internal Server Error. I have checked the logs but nothing is in
the log to suggest the problem. If I comment out the
<security-contraint></security-constraint> block, then the application works as
suspected (although with container based authentiation.
Does anyone have some ideas?
Thanks so much...
