Caroline,
Are you having problems with the username or the keyName hidden variable? If
it is the username, then I'd suspect that request.getRemoteUser() in your
JSP is returning null.

I pass two hidden fields: username and keyName at the
same time. The keyName is passed and with the correct
value in it. The username is passed but its value
turns out to be a null.
It is impossible for request.getRemoteUser(); in my
JSP returning a null. (see code below) Before it
reaches requ
db lookup) then the server
doesn't know about the user being authenticated and will return null.

Richard

Caroline,
Why are you passing the result of request.getRemoteUser() in a hidden
variable anyway since it is available as part of the HttpRequest and thus
will be available in the action class?

I must pass the result of request.getRemoteUser()
because it is a "Java class" that "receives" the
hidden field. If you read my code carefully, you will
see that FindEditorData.java is a Java class and I

Caroline,
What is the return value of getRemoteUser() ?

Rats, the thread broke, hence my other reply. Like everyone says, you
need to check the return value of getRemoteUser() - try looking at the
value of the hidden field in the HTML via IE's 'Show page source'.

I use container-managed authentication.
In which case, why don't you get the user name using
request.getUserPrincipal().getName() ?

Caroline,
As a sanity check, in your bean, initialize the
username variable to something ie. "XX". and
re-run your app. This will show if your setUsername is
ever called.

I followed your advice. In the Bean.java, I did the
following:
private String username = "natalie";
public String getUsername() {
return this.username;
}
public void setUsername(String username) {
this.username = username;
}
and I compiled all the relevant cla
I did another test. I took out those data access
activities in the FindEditorData.java and ran the
application. The conclusion is that those few lines
of data access activities have nothing to do with the
value of the 'username' becoming null in the
FindEditorData.java.
