[jboss-user] [jBPM] - Re: Problem with Rest Interface in JBPM 5.2

Dirk Meyer [https://community.jboss.org/people/meyerschalk] created the discussion "Re: Problem with Rest Interface in JBPM 5.2" To view the discussion, visit: https://community.jboss.org/message/740162#740162 -------------------------------------------------------------- Here is some web sites for you to read - http://docs.oracle.com/javaee/1.4/tutorial/doc/Security5.html http://docs.oracle.com/javaee/1.4/tutorial/doc/Security5.html and http://docs.jboss.org/jbossas/jboss4guide/r5/html/ch8.chapter.html http://docs.jboss.org/jbossas/jboss4guide/r5/html/ch8.chapter.html Basically in the gwt-console-server the rest services is expost and use form base authentications - so what happen is that you have called a secure web pages, and are redirected to a page to ask you your user credentials - The authentication screen ask you to do a http "Post" on the submit to the j_security_check ( with the post you are forced to pass the j_username and j_password variables as parameters - in a get the call would habe looked something like this http://localhost:8080/gwt-console-server/rs/process/j_security_check?j_us... http://localhost:8080/gwt-console-server/rs/process/j_security_check?j_us... you have to do this with on the same httpclient otherwise you will get a timeout. S#o all Form base pages will have this behaviour..  in my code it look something like this String secUrl = _jbpmRest+"/process/j_security_check"; ++logger++.info("start sec url:------>" (https://community.jboss.org/------>" secUrl "\n\n\n\n)+secUrl+"\n\n\n\n" (https://community.jboss.org/------>" secUrl "\n\n\n\n));content = authenticate(secUrl, _userId , _password); _jbpmRest is the offset to http://localhost:8080/gwt-consoel-server/rs (https://community.jboss.org/localhost:8080/gwt-consoel-server/rs) - this is not hard coded for obvious reasons Basically if you are autheticated in a httpclient session then that authentication will be valid for the life of the session _userid, and _password is the authentication credential for the user I am logged in as....  I know that you want to get started and build some workflows, but I can suggest that get a good grounding in j2ee web applications and there are a range of free internet resources available  to get started like the pages I suggest earlier. Or you can join Safari online and enjoy some of the online books they have available  I hope this help. .        -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [https://community.jboss.org/message/740162#740162] Start a new discussion in jBPM at Community [https://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
