RE: form-based login on a BEA weblogic server 6.1
Hi Koen, When we have done this using WebLogic and Struts we did not have an action mapping for the login. If you do have one it should *not* point to the login page, but rather the page you would like to go to after login (assuming it is a secured page). Your default (or post login) jsp/html page should just point to an area that is secured in your web.xml. WebLogic will then forward automatically to your login page, authenticate and finish by forwarding back to the default jsp/html page. Hope this helps.

RE: form-based login on a BEA weblogic server 6.1
I'm trying to use a form-based login on a Bea WLS 6.1. Is there anyone who has experience with this using struts?? I don't know exactly how to set the actionmapping, because BEA wants the action of the form pointing to j_security_check. Does anyone has a working example for this problem? Do you need to have your own login functionality? If so, you're going to have to kludge. Otherwise follow the advice from another poster that said to point your default page to a protected JSP page and you should be fine. The only cross-platform solution that we came up with that worked half decently while working on the same problem with WebSphere was to have our login action forward to a JSP page that contains a hidden HTML form with j_username and j_password calling j_security_check. The hidden form is automatically submitted by a JavaScript function when the page has finished loading. If you do this, you have to make sure you set the redirecting URL for j_security_check correctly in your login action, so that WebLogic knows where to redirect after execution of j_security_check is complete. WebSphere uses a cookie for setting it, Tomcat uses a session attribute and I have no idea what WebLogic uses for it. -TPP -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

This will tie the app to weblogic. What means, the login-procedure is specific for weblogic. -Original Message- From: Struts Newsgroup [mailto:@[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, June 11, 2002 4:55 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: form-based login on a BEA weblogic server 6.1 Subject: Re: form-based login on a BEA weblogic server 6.1 From: C.

This will tie the app to weblogic. What means, the login-procedure is specific for weblogic. No it won't. The behavior described in Jon Ridgway's post is vanilla Servlet Spec 2.2 behavior and will work on any compliant servlet container. -TPP -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
