[jboss-user] [JBoss Messaging Users] - Re: User: null is NOT authenticated

It seems that our code is performing logout action which is clearing Principal from cache because of NullPointerException is thrown (User Null Is Not Authenticated). The relevant portions of the stack trace are provided below: 2009-10-27 12:04:43,216 TRACE [org.jboss.security.plugins.JaasSecurityManager.messaging] Begin isValid, principal:null, cache info: null 2009-10-27 12:04:43,216 TRACE [org.jboss.security.plugins.JaasSecurityManager.messaging] defaultLogin, principal=null 2009-10-27 12:04:43,217 TRACE [org.jboss.security.plugins.JaasSecurityManager.messaging] Login failure javax.security.auth.login.LoginException: java.lang.NullPointerException at com.avaya.security.authorization.common.AuthorizationUtil.publishMessage(AuthorizationUtil.java:369) at com.avaya.security.authorization.client.AuthorizationClient.sendUserLogoutNotification(AuthorizationClient.java:1111) at com.avaya.mgmt.console.framework.bean.CommonConsoleIdentity.logoutaction(CommonConsoleIdentity.java:368) However I still have following questions: 1/ In case the principal=null, why can't guest credentials be used for sending the message. In the "messaging" application policy, it has been already configured that any unauthenticated user will assume "guest" credential ( <module-option name = "unauthenticatedIdentity">guest</module-option> ) . So why in this case "guest" credentials are not used. 2/ Any reasons why this exception starts coming only after the system has been up for more than 2 days.
