I'm seeing a similar issue when upgrading a 2.2.5 instance to 2.3.4. We use http header authentication (UsenamePasswordAuthentication filter is disabled, and there are no users in geoserver), and it seems that the roles found in the header are not applied to the user (ie i have ROLE_ADMINISTRATOR for some users, and they're not recognized as administrators, no admin menus). Users are correctly authenticated though. -- Landry Breuil Mouton a 5 pattes du CRAIG ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Get 100% visibility into Java/.NET code with AppDynamics Lite!
