Hello GeoServer Team,
I've been tasked with porting GeoServer 2.2.4 from GlassFish to WebSphere
8.5.5. GeoServer runs fine under WebSphere except for login to the admin
site.
When I attempt to login to the GeoServer admin site, I am directed to a
blank /j_spring_security_check page. If I tail the geoserver.log or the
WebSphere SystemOut.log absolutely no messages are logged. It's as if the
Spring login filter is not invoked at all.
I've tried various WebSphere tweaks including class load order and custom
Web Container properties. Evidently the invokefilterscompatibility property
used to solve similar issues in older versions of WebSphere, but it's no
longer available in WebSphere 8.5.5:
com.ibm.ws.webcontainer.invokefilterscompatibility = true
Has anyone else had success getting GeoServer login to work in WebSphere
8.5.5?
FYI, I also have the option of upgrading to a newer version of GeoServer.
However, I've tried 2.16.0 and 2.14.4 and cannot even get the admin site to
come up. With newer versions of GeoServer, I see this message in the
browser:
Error 500: javax.servlet.ServletException: Filter [filterChainProxy]: could
not be initialized
And this message in the logs:
java.lang.ClassCastException:
org.apache.xerces.jaxp.DocumentBuilderFactoryImpl cannot be cast to
javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory
Thanks for your help,
Juanita Dahlin
