Hi All,
I've failed miserably in configuring a DataSourceRealm for a web
application. I've scoured Google (50/50), mailing list archives (ask a
friend), and not to much avail. I've also liased with the Tomcat 5.5
documentation as far as I can tell.
So I turn to "ask the audience" ;)
I am using the Realm method described in the docu as "Inside a <Context>
element - This Realm will be used ONLY for THIS web application."
Before this I tried out my security web.xml declarations with the simple
tomcat-users UserDatabase and this worked fine. Now I want to get it
working with database tables.
I configure my web app Context a la META-INF/context.xml
My DataSources are working fine and have been for a good while. The main
one, inside the context.xml is
<Resource
name="jdbc/web"
auth="Container"
driverClass="net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.Driver"
minPoolSize="5" maxPoolSize="10"
acquireIncrement="1"
user="user" password="pass"
factory="org.apache.naming.factory.BeanFactory"
type="com.mchange.v2.c3p0.ComboPooledDataSource"
jdbcUrl="jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://intratest:1433/dbWeb;charset=Cp1252"
/>
And I have my web.xml
<resource-ref>
<description>Web Database</description>
<res-ref-name>jdbc/web</res-ref-name>
<res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
<res-auth>Container</res-auth>
</resource-ref>
So, I've created my Realm tables and so on in my database (the same one
pointed to by the above Resource).
I declare in the context.xml file
<Realm
className="org.apache.catalina.realm.DataSourceRealm"
dataSourceName="jdbc/web"
userTable="tblUsers"
userRoleTable="tblUserRoles"
userNameCol="user_name"
userCredCol="user_pass"
roleNameCol="role_name"
/>
I fire up Tomcat and it does not seem to have too much trouble until I
try and login.
2006-03-24 11:43:07,578 - ERROR
(org.apache.catalina.realm.DataSourceRealm:405) - Exception performing
authentication
javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: Name jdbc is not bound in this
Context
at
org.apache.naming.NamingContext.lookup(NamingContext.java:769)
at
org.apache.naming.NamingContext.lookup(NamingContext.java:152)
at
org.apache.catalina.realm.DataSourceRealm.open(DataSourceRealm.java:401)
I recognise the "Name jdbc is not bound in this Context" from the days
of migrating from Tomcat 5.0 to 5.5 due to the new format for defining
Resource elements. However, that's an old story that I figured out eons
ago, my DataSource Resources are proven and work. I therefore do not
believe this to be a DataSource config or driver problem.
It seems to me like the datasources are simply _not ready_ by the time
the Realm element is processed? Could this be the case? Or am I simply
not seeing something obvious (quite possible :))
Your help appreciated,
Allistair
