http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30869 JAAS module name is not allowed in jaas.conf file Summary: JAAS module name is not allowed in jaas.conf file Product: Tomcat 5 Version: 5.0.27 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: Other Component: Catalina AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] When running with the JAASRealm, the container sets the JAAS application name to be the container's name: --- 8< --- JAASRealm.java --- 8< --- public void setContainer(Container container) { super.setContainer(container); String name=container.getName(); if( appName==null ) { appName=name; log.info("Setting JAAS app name " + appName); } } --- 8< --- JAASRealm.java --- 8< --- However, the container's name always starts with a /, which isn't an allowable name in the JAAS specification: --- 8< --- stdout --- 8< --- ... INFO: Setting JAAS app name /MyApp ... --- 8< --- stdout --- 8< --- --- 8< --- jaas.conf --- 8< --- /MyApp { com.example.MyJAASLoginModule required; }; --- 8< --- jaas.conf --- 8< --- The Sun Security barfs at the '/' on leading MyApp, so it can't be speficied. The default name 'Tomcat' doesn't work either, because the JAAS name has already been set, and this cannot be set in the config file. Instead, you have to use 'other' which is applicable to all apps in the application. The fix would be to check whether there are any unprintable characters in the application name, and if so, fix them. Of course, what constitutes an unprintable character is up to Sun's Configuration parser, which probably isn't that good. A quick fix would be: --- 8< --- JAASRealm.java.fix --- 8< --- public void setContainer(Container container) { super.setContainer(container); String name=container.getName(); if( appName==null ) { if (name.startsWith("/")) name.substring(1); appName=name; log.info("Setting JAAS app name " + appName); } } --- 8< --- JAASRealm.java.fix --- 8< --- but in reality, you'd need to check for all other non-printable characters and replace/delete them as appropriate, because a name may have other / characters (e.g. /MyApp/Other). --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
