[keycloak-dev] [keycloak-user] Location of User Federation Provider jar in Keycloak 1.1 Beta-2

Fri Jan 16 12:19:02 EST 2015

Ok, I figured that I need to unzip WAR directly into auth-server 
directory to have structure like 
modules/system/layers/base/org/keycloak/keycloak-subsystem/main/auth-server/WEB-INF/... 
.

What I did before was converting WAR file to directory of the same name, 
so I had structure like: 
modules/system/layers/base/org/keycloak/keycloak-subsystem/main/auth-server/keycloak-server-1.1.0.Final-SNAPSHOT.war/WEB-INF/... 

Thanks!
