Tomcat 5.0.4 fails to serve form-login-error page properly
Hi I am porting my application from Tomcat 4.1.24 to Tomcat 5.0.4 (i.e. porting from Servlets 2.3/JSP 1.2 to Servlets 2.4/JSP 2.0). I have a servlet mapped to /auth that produces the page with login form. Form based authentication is set with the following fragment of the deployment descriptor: login-config auth-methodFORM/auth-method form-login-config form-login-page/auth/form-login-page form-error-page/auth?action=error/form-error-page /form-login-config /login-config When the servlet is called with ?action=error query string it displays additional warning besides the login form. It was working perfectly in Tomcat 4.1.24 but it works in Tomcat 5.0.4 only in half: When user tries to access protected page he is presented with login page. If he enters valid login/password then he receives access to the resourse. But if the user enters invalid login/password then instead of form-error-page Tomcat displays HTTP Status 405 - HTTP method POST is not supported by this URL error with URL http://myhost.here/j_security_check;. I have tried to set up AccessLogValve and RequestDumpValve and to set debug attribute on every element in servlet.xml and my context.xml (where applicable) in order to try to understand what is going on inside Tomcat 5, but no luck so far - request damp just shows that 1) there was request to protected resourse 2) Tomcat returned form-login-page 3) user sent it back with invalid login/password 4) Tomcat returned error 405. I had expected that there should be output from Realm between 3) and 4) but there is not. So, at the moment the conclusion is that the code that worked perfectly in Tomcat 4.1.24 doesn't work in Tomcat 5.0.4 and i don't know why but i would be delighted if somebody will help me to find this out :) - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
