http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=35745 Summary: Realm JDBCRealm userTable & userRoleTable not real parameters? Product: Tomcat 5 Version: 5.0.28 Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows 2000 Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Catalina AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] When implementing container managed security in server.xml using JDBCRealm (and perhaps the JNDI JDBC based realm?) this works.... <Realm className="org.apache.catalina.realm.JDBCRealm" debug="99" connectionName="javauser" connectionPassword="javadude" connectionURL="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/trainingdb" driverName="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" userTable="users" userNameCol="user_name" userCredCol="user_pass" userRoleTable="user_roles" roleNameCol="role_name" /> But this does not.... <Realm className="org.apache.catalina.realm.JDBCRealm" debug="99" connectionName="javauser" connectionPassword="javadude" connectionURL="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/trainingdb" driverName="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" userTable="MYTABLENAME" userNameCol="user_name" userCredCol="user_pass" userRoleTable="user_roles" roleNameCol="role_name" /> The Tomcat log files were helpful in that they indicated my table name was not found in the database - but it was there. On a hunch I renamed my existing legacy tables (in test) to match your examples and the container managed security worked. It appears the Tomcat implementation has hard-coded these table-name and column-name values somewhere in the j_security_implementation. This of course defeats the whole point of providing these parameters to users in the first place. Note that published authors, aside from your web-site, are touting the flexibility of the Tomcat implementation to reference existing client (legacy) USER and USER-ROLE table names already existing and used by other applications. I spent several days trying to get my existing table names to work without success and I'm not a 'newbie'. I never saw any published examples in books where anyone actually used names aside from the default example, so perhaps this simply has not be tested. It is the only explanation I have for it not working without digging into the Tomcat source code implementation of container managed security. Great product, by the way, really. Tomcat is fantastic - and free!!!! -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
