In your ehcache.xml file, does adding a name attribute to the root element help?
<ehcache xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="http://ehcache.org/ehcache.xsd"; name="shiro"> Something like that? On the other hand, if you really want a singleton, you can write a EhCacheManagerFactory that implements org.apache.shiro.util.Factory. You'd configure it something like this: ehCacheManager=com.mycompany.MyEhCacheManagerFactory cacheManager = org.apache.shiro.cache.ehcache.EhCacheManager cacheManager.cacheManager=ehCacheManager securityManager.cacheManager = $cacheManager -Jared On Thu 21 Jun 2012 08:15:12 AM CDT, whitneyrzoller wrote: > Hello all, > > I am trying to get EhCache configured to handle authorization caching. > Currently I am getting the following exception: > org.apache.shiro.cache.CacheException: net.sf.ehcache.CacheException: > Another unnamed CacheManager already exists in the same VM.
