[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (JBAS-5515) Failed to load users/passwords/role files

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBAS-5515?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12676995#comment-12676995 ] 

J D commented on JBAS-5515:
---------------------------

Well, I don't know if this is considered current. But I hit this when deploying an EJB 2.x application in JBoss AS 6.1.final.

Anyhow, the reason I'm commenting here is to share the workaround I found with googlers running in to the same. For me this was solved by adding two empty files to the JBoss setup:
- server/default/conf/props/roles.properties
- server/default/conf/props/users.properties

found the the solution in:
- server/default/conf/login-config.xml

Btw, it might make sense to add those empty files to the JBoss release. Since the default setup seems to be dependent on their existence.

Sidenote: the Jboss AS here is running EJB3.1 EJB's but also has as historical EJB2.x application deployed. The later had some very open security config (allow everyone), which was triggering this.
