[jboss-user] [Security & JAAS/JBoss] - BaseCertLoginModule failure: certificate credentials are not

[fthurber]

When I try to use the BaseCertLoginModule, it fails with this error:

anonymous wrote : Don't know how to obtain X509Certificate from: class java.lang.String

I looked at the source code and the failure occurs when the getAliasAndCert() method tries to read a X509 cert from ObjectCallback.getCredential().  Somehow the client cert is not being loaded in the credentials when the callback is done.

Here is my login-config.xml; it is almost exactly as given in the manual:

          <login-module code="org.jboss.security.auth.spi.BaseCertLoginModule"
  |              flag = "required">
  |             <module-option name="password-stacking">useFirstPass</module-option>
  |             <module-option name="securityDomain">java:/jaas/encrypt-keystore-password</module-option>
  |             <module-option name="unauthenticatedIdentity">guest</module-option>
  |             <module-option name="verifier">org.jboss.security.auth.certs.AnyCertVerifier</module-option>
  |           </login-module>
