I have defined two roles (admin, user)
<security-role>
<role-name>user</role-name>
</security-role>
<security-role>
<role-name>administrator</role-name>
</security-role>
each of these roles needs to access into separate modules in my webapp. For
achieving this, I have the following security-constraint in tomcat web.xml:
<security-constraint>
<web-resource-collection>
<web-resource-name>Authorized Access Area</web-resource-name>
<url-pattern>/index.jsp</url-pattern>
<url-pattern>/login.jsp</url-pattern>
<url-pattern>/error.jsp</url-pattern>
<url-pattern>/app1/*</url-pattern>
<url-pattern>*.jsp</url-pattern>
</web-resource-collection>
<auth-constraint>
<role-name>user</role-name>
</auth-constraint>
</security-constraint>
<security-constraint>
<web-resource-collection>
<web-resource-name>Authorized Access Area</web-resource-name>
<url-pattern>/index.jsp</url-pattern>
<url-pattern>/login.jsp</url-pattern>
<url-pattern>/error.jsp</url-pattern>
<url-pattern>/app2/*</url-pattern>
</web-resource-collection>
<auth-constraint>
<role-name>administrator</role-name>
</auth-constraint>
</security-constraint>
consider the following steps:
1. Access context/app1/app1action.jsp URL
2. I get prompted for credentials
3. I login as normal user, and on successful login I get redirected to
app1action.jsp page (desired behavior)
4. Now, I clear my cache & sessions authentication from browser (firefox)
4. Browse into some link in app1action.jsp page pointing to some other page
eg. context/app1/anotherpage.jsp
5. Now I get prompted to relogin
6. On successful login, I expect myself to get redirected to
'anotherpage.jsp'. But instead it redirects me to the resources ( JS / img /
css ) that are included with in 'anotherpage.jsp' . eg.
context/resources/sample.js or sample.css or sample.gif ....
I spent googling on this issue for couple of days with no luck.
Can you please advise how to get properly redirected ?
~ Many Thanks
