Hi, I really like the idea of Federated SSO. Unfortunately I can't make it run. I took a fresh installation of 4.0.2 and copied the files into the deploy directory: jboss-sso.sar jboss-federation-server.ear But when starting jboss I get the ERROR: 2006-11-30 11:03:36,847 DEBUG [org.jboss.util.NestedThrowable] org.jboss.util.NestedThrowable.detectDuplicateNesting=true org.jboss.deployment.DeploymentException: url file:/C:/jboss-4.0.2-clean/jboss-4.0.2/server/default/deploy/jboss-sso.sar/log4j.jar could not be opened, does it exist? After putting log4j into the default/lib directory, it asks for log4j-core...which i don't have. But renaming a log4j to log4j-core and putting it into default/lib as well, solves that issue. nevertheless the .ear failes as well: 2006-11-30 11:03:52,221 DEBUG [org.jboss.deployment.SARDeployer] create operation failed for package file:/C:/jboss-4.0.2-clean/jboss-4.0.2/server/default/tmp/deploy/tmp62926jboss-federation-server.ear-contents/jboss-federation-server.sar org.jboss.deployment.DeploymentException: Error parsing the XML file: ; - nested throwable: (org.jboss.mx.util.JBossNotCompliantMBeanException: Error parsing the XML file: ) I want to use your framework for a JBoss 4.0.2 without EJB, because I cannot change the existing JBoss server. Furthermore I need to write my own LoginProvider. Are those conditions supported? BTW. the current jboss-identity-management.jar within /bin/jboss-sso.sar doesn't provide the interface LoginContext, although the source-files would say so. regards, Markus Heidt View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3989983#...
