Andrew, thanks for the quick reply. I forgot to mention that I could not find that UPGRADING document, it's not available in the binary distribution (I found it now in the source distribution). I have tried a few things but nothing has changed. getWikiNames() indeed returns null because it will only return a wiki name for someone who is logged in because we use our custom LDAP implementation only for this (and logging in is not required), this was not a problem in 2.4 but it seems to me that has this changed now ?
- What do you mean with "UserProfile custom properties ", is this the Map with Attributes ? What are these attributes then ? (they seem to be optional) - "your user database implementation does not implement finding by unique ID": it does (but it returns null, as I said we only use findByLoginName) - what is "Principal[] getWikiNames()" supposed to return ? All the wikinames in the database (as it seems to be done in the other Userdatabase implementations)? A few settings in the properties file that are perhaps also usefull: - jspwiki.cookieAssertions=true - cookie authentication is off jspwiki.authorizer = com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.authorize.WebContainerAuthorizer (same as in 2.4) regards, Marc Begin doorgestuurd bericht: Van: Andrew Jaquith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Datum: 27 oktober 2008 16:47:24 GMT+01:00 Aan: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Onderwerp: Antw.: JSPWiki 2.8 Authentication troubles Antwoord aan: [email protected] Marc - we changed the contract for UserDatabase slighttly. I thought we documented the required changes in the UPGRADING document. However, you can get the details from the UserDatabase javadoc. That said, here's what the problem is likely to be: - your user database implementation does not implement finding by unique ID - your UserDatabase implementation does not implement UserProfile custom properties (a new 2.8 feature) The empty array might also be the root cause... Let me know what you find.

However we have troubles with the new implemented Authorisation & Authentication: - navigating to the Login or Userpreferences page does not work, the page gets not loaded, no error or warning is given, nothing to find in the logs (even in debug mode) except for the following lines: "INFO com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.UserManager - Attempting to load user database class ... .LDAPUserDatabase INFO com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.user.AbstractUserDatabase - Initializing LDAP database ... INFO com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.UserManager - UserDatabase initialized." So it seems that our Userdatbase is initialized correctly. - I tried to go to the Admin and SecurityConfig pages and these gave me following errors: * Admin page: "An error occurred while getting property "wikiNames" from an instance of class ... .LDAPUserDatabase. Exception javax.servlet.jsp.el.ELException Place where detected org.apache.commons.el.Logger.logError(), line 484" * SecurityConfig: "Error Message An unknown exception java.lang.NullPointerException was caught by Error.jsp. Exception java.lang.NullPointerException Place where detected com.ecyrd.jspwiki.auth.WikiPrincipal.hashCode(), line 145 " Our implementation only returns a profile for "findByLoginName", that was never a problem, and "getWikiNames" probably always returns an empty array, maybe that is the problem ? regards, Marc Patteet
