It was no duplicate - thanks for mailing again and for your hint. After putting all security stuff in securityfilter-config.xml the error message is gone and authentication works. The only thing I have to ask you again is a redirection which won't work as expected: As I already told the login form is on every page. When I use the login form from the sub-app url http://localhost:8080/mainapp/subapp/docpool/showdocs.do I'll get the error: 17.09.2002 16:55:03 org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Jdk14Logger error FATAL: Invalid path /mainapp/subapp/docpool/showdocs was requested I assume this has something to do with the sub-app because the correct redirection has to go to /showdocs which struts will translate to the above url. Is there a solution to this problem? (I'm using Tomcat 4.0.4 on Win2K, struts 1.1b1, security-filter 1.0b3) gus > > Gus, > > That message seems to be coming from the web container (app server), > which most likely means that you have configured your web app to use > container based security.
