Georgi Gyurchev updated JBSEAM-5124:
------------------------------------
Attachment: AuthenticationFilter.java
ContextualHttpServletRequest.java
Workaround classes
> HTTP Basic Authentication causes a hidden IllegalStateException
> ---------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: JBSEAM-5124
> URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBSEAM-5124
> Project: Seam 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Security
> Affects Versions: 2.3.1.CR1, 2.3.1.Final
> Environment: JBOSS AS 7.0.2
> JSF 2.1
> Richfaces 4.3.2
> Reporter: Georgi Gyurchev
> Attachments: AuthenticationFilter.java,
> ContextualHttpServletRequest.java
>
>
> The built-in Authentication filter causes "javax.servlet.ServletException:
> java.lang.IllegalStateException: No active event context" on every page that
> goes through the filter. At least for basic authentication.
> The user is likely to not see this but it shows in the console and can mess
> with other functionality.
> ------------------------------------------------------
> I have gone through the Seam classes AuthenticationFilter and
> ContextualHttpServletRequest and figured out where the problem lies:
> chain.doFilter() is called between the start and the end of the request and
> when ContextualHttpServletRequest tries to end the request, the context is
> not active anymore, I'm not sure exactly why but it seems logical. I'm also
> not sure why it worked it Seam 2.2.
> ------------------------------------------------------
> The workaround is to make your own filter. I will attach my fix here. To use
> a custom filter you must specify it in web.xml:
> <filter>
> <filter-name>Basic Authentication Filter</filter-name>
>
> <filter-class>eu.cleversoft.infonds3.support.AuthenticationFilter</filter-class>
> </filter>
> <filter-mapping>
> <filter-name>Basic Authentication Filter</filter-name>
> <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
> </filter-mapping>
