RE: Strange JLoginUser problem

[Kristofer Eriksson]

Hi,
 
A quick question regarding below problem! It seems I am having the same
problem when trying to use my own custom login action and was wondering if
anyone know what is going on.
 
Using JS 1.5 on tomcat 5
 
Any help appreciated.
 
Kind Regards

Hi All,
 
  I am currently trying to configure my own login and
authentication so I have my own class that overrides
JLoginUser.  However, I have encountered a weird
problem whereby if I use my own class, the user I
typed in would be login but would not forward me to
the correct user psml file.  
 
Here are excerpts from my Jsp file:
 
<form method="POST" action="<jetspeed:dynamicUri/>" >
            <INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="js_peid"
VALUE="<%=jspeid%>">
            <input name="action" type="hidden"
value="portlets.MyOwnLoginUser">
          <table border="0" cellspacing="2"
cellpadding="0">
            <tr>
              <td style="font-size:10">UserName</td>
              <td>
                <input value="" name="username"
maxlength="25" type="text" tabindex="1"
style="font-size:10">
              </td>
              <td rowspan="2" align="center">
                <input name="refresh" type="submit"
value="Login" tabindex="4"  style="font-size:10" />
              </td>
              <td> </td>
            </tr>
            <tr>
              <td style="font-size:10">Password</td>
              <td>
                <input value="" name="password"
maxlength="25" type="password" tabindex="2"
style="font-size:10">
              </td>
            </tr>
            <tr>
              <td style="font-size:10" colspan="2">
                <input name="rememberme" value="true"
type="checkbox" tabindex="3" />Remember
              </td>
            </tr>
            <tr>
              <td> </td>
            </tr>
          </table>
        </form>
 
My own portelts.MyOwnLoginUser class just extends
JLoginUser..nothing more. eg:
 
public class MyOwnLoginUser extends JLoginUser
{
 ....
}
 
Now if I use the regular JLoginUser class in my JSP,
everything would work correctly meaning I would be
forward to the correct user psml file.  I don't get
it?  Is there more I need to do in order to duplicate
what JLoginUser does?
 
thanks in advance!
