Okay there is a listener : <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app xmlns="http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_3_1.xsd" version="3.1"> <listener> <listener-class>org.apache.shiro.web.env.EnvironmentLoaderListener</listener-class> </listener> <filter> <filter-name>ShiroFilter</filter-name> <filter-class>org.apache.shiro.web.servlet.ShiroFilter</filter-class> </filter> <filter-mapping> <filter-name>ShiroFilter</filter-name> <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern> <dispatcher>REQUEST</dispatcher> <dispatcher>FORWARD</dispatcher> <dispatcher>INCLUDE</dispatcher> <dispatcher>ERROR</dispatcher> </filter-mapping> </web-app> And I am using shiro.ini with the same result (shiro never starting). One weird thing is that once I run clean|compile|package (using Maven) target/Project/WEB-INF/web.xml complains that it cannot find ShiroFilter needs filter mapping although the file is still: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <web-app xmlns="http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_3_1.xsd" version="3.1"> <listener> <listener-class>org.apache.shiro.web.env.EnvironmentLoaderListener</listener-class> </listener> <filter> <filter-name>ShiroFilter</filter-name> <filter-class>org.apache.shiro.web.servlet.ShiroFilter</filter-class> </filter> <filter-mapping> <filter-name>ShiroFilter</filter-name> <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern> <dispatcher>REQUEST</dispatcher> <dispatcher>FORWARD</dispatcher> <dispatcher>INCLUDE</dispatcher> <dispatcher>ERROR</dispatcher> </filter-mapping> </web-app> -- Sent from: http://shiro-user.582556.n2.nabble.com/
