Unable to cast to jackrabbitSession to get the UserManager

[Yusuf Aaji]

Hi,

When I try to cast the Session object to JackrabbitSession to get the
UserManager I'm getting a classCastException

 #{accessManager.addUser}: java.lang.ClassCastException:
org.apache.jackrabbit.core.XASessionImpl cannot be cast to
org.apache.jackrabbit.api.JackrabbitSession
    at javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet.service(FacesServlet.java:277)
    at
org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.internalDoFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:269)
    at
org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.doFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:188)

and this is how I'm getting my session:

ServletContext context = (ServletContext)
FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getContext();
ServletContext jackrabbit = context.getContext("/jackrabbit");
Repository repository = (Repository)
jackrabbit.getAttribute(Repository.class.getName());
contentSession = repository.login( jcrCredentials );


any ideas? isn't XASessionImpl implement JackrabbitSession interface?!!!

BR,
Yusuf
