I can't get form based logon to work reliably in Beta6 (in fact I've had
problems for a while)
I have a webapp (called course) and a sub directory (gjava) which is
protected. I'm using form based logon with the username and password in
tomcat-users.xml.
i) If I try and access a resource in \course\gjava I get the logon page, if
I enter a valid username and password everything works.
ii) If I try and access a resource in \course\gjava I get the logon page, if
I enter an invalid username and password I get the logon page again - *not*
the error page.
iii) If I try and access a resource in \course\gjava I get the logon page,
if I enter a valid username and password everything works. But if I hit the
back button and then enter an invalid username/password I get redirected
here http://localhost/course/gjava/j_security_check and get a 404 error
iv) If I try and access a resource in \course\gjava I get the logon page, if
I enter an invalid username and password I get the logon page again - *not*
the error page. If I now enter the correct password I get the error page,
