I'm pretty sure this will work if you set up a JDBC pool in the console and then just point your security realm to that instead of separately configuring the JDBC JAR and connection settings in the security realm screen.

Thanks Aaron..... that's leading me in the right direction.....
I'm having troubles setting up the security realm....
I'm using the WAS CE console.... which pretty much looks like the geronimo console..
I'm not exactly sure what the error message is asking for. A dependency in the web app? I wouldn't think so, because the security realm seems to be a totally separate component to the web app....
Do you see any glaring errors? Or is there something else i should be doing?
Thanks,
Eric

[email protected] Re: JAAS configuration in geronimo
So we override the default JAAS file-based configuration mechanism
with a configuration system of our own based on Geronimo components
(GBeans).
If you are doing this for a web application and you can use the normal
J2EE login routines, you can configure your login module as a Geronimo
security realm and let J2EE/Geronimo handle the login.
If you are intentionally avoiding the J2EE login handling, then you
probably need to rewrite your JAAS configuration as a Geronimo service
configuration (we have GBeans that wrap login module configuration,
etc.). You'll also need to put your classes in a JAR in the
repository (geronimo/repository/whatever/your-login-code-1.0.jar). It
will probably be a little painful to write the configuration plan, but
hey, you only need to do it once. :)
If you're going to need to write the plan, can you post the relevent
section from your existing JAAS config file?
Thanks,
Aaron
