[rules-users] Error : JAAS Authentication with Guvnor 5.5.0 and Authorization Error

I have just added a bit of cross referencing. As Mike mentions, I'm sure there was a Guvnor bug raised, which was flagged as fixed. However, I can't find it linked off the Seam bug, and I can't find it through a bit of keyword searching in Jira.


btw … I thought my English was reasonable, but I can't for the life of me work out what the difference is between "relates to" and "is related to" when linking 2 issues. Feel free to correct the link I created.

I debugged the guvnor code and found out that username is null in org.jboss.seam.security.IdentityImpl..activeAuthenticator. This is a  JAAS Authenticator in which user is coming null. I found it out in IdentityImpl.postAuthenticate() method.

I have two users which have “package.developer” rights but still those users can update any process in other packages. Even those users can update their own user permissions.
