Hey, Dirk,

Thanks so much for the info.  You are correct that WebContainerAuthorizer points to java.sun.com and the web.xml points to the javaee.  What change do I make?  Should I change the web.xml to point to the sun site?  I can't really change the WebContainerAuthorizer code without doing a full rebuild.  I don't have a build environment set up.

Jerry,  Ulf,


Probably the namespace used by
org.apache.wiki.auth.authorizer.WebContainerAuthorizer.java
is incorrect, as it still points to java.sun.com :

     private static final String J2EE_SCHEMA_25_NAMESPACE = "
http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee";;


The web.xml points to

http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee


Could you check if that would help to fix this issue?
Not sure why this has not been catched by the tests.


Best regards,
dirk

Thanks, Ulf.  At least I know it's not just me.  Are any developers of
JSPWiki monitoring this forum?

I debugged this down to the isConstrained(...) method in
org.apache.wiki.auth.authorizer.WebContainerAuthorizer.java.  I'm not
sure of the reason for adding the "j:" tag qualifier prefix. Comment
says it is required for J2EE 2.3.  But it's searching for
<j:url-contstraint> and other "j:" tags in web.xml, which aren't there.
And the search is failing.  So basically it is not finding /Login.jsp
and /Delete.jsp constraints even though they are present and in the
correct location (and uncommented).  I tried adding the "j:" prefixes to
my web.xml.  But the webapp wouldn't even start with prefixes manually
added.   So the problem is straightforward.  It may have nothing to do
with the "j:" prefix.  But that line that search for the constraint tag
is still failing.  I ultimately get the log entry that says "JSPWiki is
using custom authentication." from the WebContainerAuthorizer class even
though web.xml is configured for container-managed authentication.

So I'm dead with this release.  Either I'm doing something horribly
wrong or there is a serious bug in the WebContainerAuthorizer code.  But
I've gone as far as I can go short of having to modify JSPWiki and build
my own release (which I do NOT want to do or have time to do).

Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong and/or how many releases back I
have to go (and where to find archived releases) in order to get my
sites back online for my clients?

Will a developer PLEASE reply?

Jerry

I have not gotten container auth to work with 2.11.0.M3. I'm quite
familiar
with Java web apps, so I know what to comment and what not in web.xml,

no dice. I don't use SSO, though. But container auth works fine with
other
web apps on the same Tomcat instance.
