Bertrand Delacretaz updated SLING-327:
--------------------------------------
Attachment: SLING-327.patch
> SingAuthenticator: improve Repository sanity check
> --------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SLING-327
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-327
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Bertrand Delacretaz
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: SLING-327.patch
>
>
> Currently the SlingAuthenticator sometimes behaves in funny ways if the
> Repository is not available, or not accepting logins for some reason. If
> anonymous access is allowed, for example, a login box might appear if the
> repository becomes unavailable, which makes things confusing.
> The attached patch improves the situation by verifying that an admin session
> can be obtained from the Repository, and throws MissingRepositoryException if
> not.
> This should allow better handling of Repository problems in higher
> application layers.
> I'm not sure about all the implications - can we assume that an admin session
> is required for things to work?
> Please review the patch before I apply it, or feel free to apply it, as I'll
> be mostly offline until after Easter
