I'm new to Lift and am trying to use Lift within a subpath of my web application. For example, http://domain.com is an existing webapp, but my LiftFilter handles the "user_mgt" subpath (http://domain.com/ user_mgt/*). My existing webapp already handles user authentication, but I want to use the lost/change password functionality of Lift's MegaProtoUser.
How do I create a LiftSession from my existing webapp so that I can call User.logUserIn(my_user)? I am embedding my User.logUserIn call within S.initIfUninitted like this: S.initIfUninitted(my_lift_session.openOr(** SOMETHING? **)) { User.logUserIn(user) } If a LiftSession exists, I can retrieve it and it works fine: val my_lift_session = SessionMaster.getSession(current_session_id, Empty) However, when my_lift_session is Empty, I have tried: LiftRules.sessionCreator(new provider.servlet.HTTPServletSession(current_session), "")) which appears to create a new LiftSession, but when I actually navigate to a page in the subpath http://domain.com/user_mgt/change_password it doesn't recognize that I've logged in. Perhaps when I load the page http://domain.com/user_mgt/change_password it is creating a new LiftSession even though one already exists? I've been banging my head on this for a while. Any help would be greatly appreciated! dave -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Lift" group. To post to this group, send email to lift...@googlegroups.com.
