With the (created=true) flag, I now got this: | 21:54:46,578 INFO [Lifecycle] starting up: org.jboss.seam.security.identity | 21:54:46,734 INFO [Pages] reading pages.xml | 21:54:46,843 INFO [STDOUT] Verify login for tony | 21:54:46,843 ERROR [SeamLoginModule] Error invoking login method | javax.faces.el.EvaluationException: org.hibernate.hql.ast.QuerySyntaxException: login_user is not mapped [select u from login_user u where u.loginId=:username and u.password=:password] | Note that this same select statement worked with LoginAction which was a session bean. I will try to upgrade to 1.2 tomorrow and see if that would make a difference. Thanks View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4023491#...
