There is a method to force JAAS to reload the system property. Something like Configuration.getConfiguration().refresh()
You have to call that method after changing the system property Hope that helps Enrico Il gio 9 gen 2020, 20:05 Damien Diederen <ddiede...@sinenomine.net> ha scritto: > > Hi Arpit, Máté, > > Arpit wrote: > > > The solution is to pass JAAS file > > with -Djava.security.auth.login.config=/path/to/jaas.conf. > > Okay—good. > > > Using System.setProperty does not work for me. > > Ah, I see.
