Re: Form based authentication problem

[Jonathan James]

FYI I came up with something that makes it work. I edited the MainServlet.java file and added a doPost method that just calls the doGet method already implemented. This makes perfect sense except that it worked as it was on the Sun Reference Implemetation, JBoss/Tomcat, Weblogic5.1, and Weblogic6.0.   Jonathan ----- Original Message ----- From: Jonathan James To: Orion-Interest Sent: Tuesday, February 27, 2001 10:49 AM Subject: Form based authentication problem I'm trying to get the Java Petstore 1.1.1 (the new one) working with Orion. I've read some previous posts and the docs and everything is working except that on my login.jsp I have to use <form action="j_security_check" method=GET> instead of <form action="j_security_check" method=POST> as it is supposed to be. This ends up putting the password in the URL. Why doesn't POST work with with j_security_check?   Thanks   Jonathan
