Sorry that's just a typo. Just put the complete package qualified groupId for your security plugin there. It should be 'org.apache.geronimo.framework/server-security-config/2.1.4/car=<your-plugin-group-id>/<your-plugin-artifact-id>/<your-plugin-version>/car'. That was me typing out an example very hastily.
Is this line correct? > org.apache.geronimo.framework/server-security-config/2.1.4/car=org > com.my.geronimo/my-security-config/1.0/car notice the "=org com.my" On Fri, Sep 11, 2009 at 8:47 PM, Joe Dente <jde...@21technologies.com> wrote: > To reproduce it create your own server-security-config plugin that uses any > login module other than the properties-login gbean that is expected.
