Hi Mario,

So in your example application I have added a security-constraint on
the configurator application and there is a null pointer exception
when trying to access the restricted area.

Please add the following section to your web.xml file (at the very
end, just before </web-app>). Then start the application and click on
the "A PC Konfigurator" link.


    <security-constraint>
        <display-name>Orchestra example security</display-name>
        <web-resource-collection>
            <web-resource-name>Protected Area</web-resource-name>
            <url-pattern>/configurator/*</url-pattern>
        </web-resource-collection>
        <auth-constraint>
            <role-name>orchestra_user</role-name>
        </auth-constraint>
        <!--
         <user-data-constraint>
            <transport-guarantee>CONFIDENTIAL</transport-guarantee>
        </user-data-constraint>-->
    </security-constraint>

    <!-- Default login configuration uses form-based authentication -->
    <login-config>
        <auth-method>FORM</auth-method>
        <realm-name>Form-Based Authentication Area</realm-name>
        <form-login-config>
            <form-login-page>/start.faces</form-login-page>
            <form-error-page>/start.faces</form-error-page>
        </form-login-config>
    </login-config>

    <!-- Security roles referenced by this web application -->
    <security-role>
        <role-name>orchestra_user</role-name>
    </security-role>
