http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31683 It should be documented that JDBCRealm doesn't support digest authentication Summary: It should be documented that JDBCRealm doesn't support digest authentication Product: Tomcat 5 Version: 5.5.3 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: Other Component: Webapps:Documentation AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] The realm documentaion e.g. http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/config/realm.html doesn't mention that JDBCRealm (and DataSourceRealm) currently cannot support DIGEST authentication. There is an old bug report, bug#19767, which analysis the problem in detail: some basic functions which are required for the Digest authentication are not implemented. Based on google search several people were affected by the problem. Moreover, there isn't any kind of error message or log entry which could help, this makes the problem more severe. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
