Hi Luc,
I tried form based login by just disabling BASIC and adding FORM (as
below) to my web.xml file:
<login-config>
<!--
<auth-method>BASIC</auth-method>
-->
<realm-name>ClaroLogic</realm-name>
<auth-method>FORM</auth-method>
<form-login-config>
<form-login-page>/LoginForm.html</form-login-page>
<form-error-page>/LoginError.html</form-error-page>
</form-login-config>
</login-config>
But I end up getting a 404 error always (with the browser URL reading:
http://192.168.0.20/testservlet/j_security_check)
I tried putting LoginForm.html and LoginError.html at the webapps level
(and chaged the web.xml) as below:
<form-login-config>
<form-login-page>/../LoginForm.html</form-login-page>
<form-error-page>/../LoginError.html</form-error-page>
</form-login-config>
But now I get the 404 error with the URL reading
(http://192.168.0.20/j_security_check).
Aaaarrrrgggghhh!
Tomcat version is 3.2.3. Any ideas/suggestions would be gratefully
gobbled. I cannot use 4.0 because
Cloudscape (the D/base) does not work with 4.0.
Aaaarrrrgggghhh! (again)
Cheers
