SaslException: Authentication failed when XA Recovery tries to call remote server --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: WFLY-12291 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-12291 Project: WildFly Issue Type: Bug Components: Remoting Reporter: Flavia Rainone Assignee: Flavia Rainone Priority: Critical Fix For: 18.0.0.Beta1 This is caused by how the current AuthenticationContext is captured when wildfly-transaction-client tries to do transaction recovery. It essentially calls ElytronXmlParser.parseAuthenticationClientConfiguration(), which calls org.wildfly.client.config.ClientConfiguration#getInstance(), which only looks for wildfly-config in various locations.
