To view the discussion, visit: http://community.jboss.org/message/637677#637677 -------------------------------------------------------------- Hi! After several days of investigation I finally found the solution. The element "class" of standardidentity-config.xml must reference the corresponding module, e.g. for User, it has to reference the implementation of UserModule (and not the implementation of User itself: MyUserImpl!!!), and the same for Role, Membership and UserProfile. So I implemented the interfaces UserModule, RoleModule, etc. But not directly, instead I extended UserModuleService, RoleModuleService etc. to save some work. The missing properties I mentioned in my last post are no longer necessary then and can be removed. The standardidentity-config.xml now looks like this: <module>     <type>User</type>     <implementation>CUSTOM</implementation>     <service-name>portal:service=Module,type=User</service-name>     <class>com.myCompany.MyUserModuleImpl</class>     <config>         <option>            <name>jNDIName</name>            <value>java:/portal/UserModule</value>         </option>     </config> </module> <module>     <type>Role</type>     <implementation>CUSTOM</implementation>     <service-name>portal:service=Module,type=Role</service-name>     <class>com.myCompany.MyRoleModuleImpl</class>     <config>         <option>            <name>jNDIName</name>            <value>java:/portal/RoleModule</value>         </option>     </config> </module>     <module>     <type>Membership</type>     <implementation>CUSTOM</implementation>     <service-name>portal:service=Module,type=Membership</service-name>     <class>com.myCompany.MyMembershipModuleImpl</class>     <config>         <option>            <name>jNDIName</name>            <value>java:/portal/MembershipModule</value>         </option>     </config> </module> <module>     <type>UserProfile</type>     <implementation>CUSTOM</implementation>     <service-name>portal:service=Module,type=UserProfile</service-name>     <class>com.myCompany.MyUserProfileModuleImpl</class>     <config>         <option>            <name>jNDIName</name>            <value>java:/portal/UserProfileModule</value>         </option>     </config> </module> In order to implement those interfaces I had to add the following dependencies to the pom.xml: <dependency>     <groupId>org.jboss.portal.common</groupId>     <artifactId>common-common</artifactId>     <version>1.2.0</version>     <scope>provided</scope> </dependency> <dependency>     <groupId>jboss</groupId>     <artifactId>jboss-common-client</artifactId>     <version>3.2.3</version>     <scope>provided</scope> </dependency> Now everthing is working as expected: the server is starting and I can login. :-) -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/637677#637677] Start a new discussion in JBoss Portal at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
