Thanks for your reply Steinar, I think the difference is that you don't use the anonymous filter (keyword "anon" in shiro.ini). I need to use that on a couple of pages that need to be accessible by anyone without having to login.
What happens if you try using "anon"? Will Karaf require basic authentication? Note also that I have the Karaf web console installed. I think it might interfere with this. /Bengt 2016-11-04 17:27 GMT+01:00 Steinar Bang <[email protected]>: > >>>>> Bengt Rodehav <[email protected]>: > > > It seems that if I comment away the following line in > etc/system.properties > > then the basic authentication goes away: > > > *karaf.local.roles = admin,manager,viewer,systembundles* > > > Not sure how this works.
