It's still not working. Setting the pages.xml entries(and updating to HEAD of cvs) like so: | <navigation> | <rule if-outcome="home"> | <redirect view-id="/home.xhtml"/> | </rule> | </navigation> | </page> | | <page view-id="/home.xhtml" scheme="https"> | <restrict>#{identity.isLoggedIn(true)}</restrict> | </page> | resulted in identical behavior. Setting the login-requred parameter to true resulted in me being forwarded to seam-gen's login.xhtml view. I understand why that's happening-because of the exception handler listed below...but I'm not sure what I should do to make it hit my authentication code. Subclass Pages? | <page view-id="*"> | <navigation> | <rule if-outcome="home"> | <redirect view-id="/home.xhtml"/> | </rule> | </navigation> | </page> | | <page view-id="/home.xhtml" login-required="true" scheme="https"> | </page> | <exception class="org.jboss.seam.security.NotLoggedInException"> | <redirect view-id="/login.xhtml"/> | </exception> | any ideas? where in the seam code itself should I be looking so I can debug this behavior? thanks again Mike Kohout View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4069684#...
