Hi ,
Please help at your earliest. Below are the detailed description for tbe above.

We have a two ear deployed in JBoss. One ear contains all EJBs. Second Ear contains war file and internally invokes EJBs.

When my system receives (Using MDBs) messages it?s processed perfectly but when I am unable to login in web application.

I thought during migration just I can deploy my ear files but I found some class loader problems. But when I removed all the EJB client jars from the .war/web-inf/lib, It worked. 

But login problem is still there, I believe this problem is due to JAAS/SSL configuration.


We have a problem with JAAS in new version of JBoss-4.0.5. The same approach is working in JBoss-3.2.3 version.


We are using customized login module and this login module is invoked properly and subject is populated

                subject.getPrivateCredentials().add(userBean);
                logger.info("Adding role '" + userBean.getRole() + "' to context");
                userRoles.addMember(new SimplePrincipal(userBean.getRole()));

Login module returns true.

But from action class, when we call below code subject is null.
EntryUser user = EISDataHelper().getUser();

signature of getUser is as below:
 public EntryUserBean getUser() throws CustodyException, RemoteException {
        Subject subj = SecurityAssociation.getSubject(); //Here subject is null(in JBoss-4.0.5.GA), while same code is running in JBoss-3.2.3
             if (subj == null) {
                         logger.debug("subject is null");
              return null;
             }

}

Configuration for login module in login-config.xml  is as below :
<application-policy name="settlement">
      
            <login-module code="com.db.dcs.model.settlements.jboss.security.LdapDBLoginModule" flag="required">                 
                  <module-option name="validatePWD">true</module-option>                        
            </login-module>
      
</application-policy>


Configuration for JAAS  in conf/jboss-service.xml  is as below :

<!-- ==================================================================== -->
      <!-- Security                                                             -->
      <!-- ==================================================================== -->
