[jbossseam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBSEAM-3045) urlrewritefilter breaks basic authentication

    [ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-3045?page=comments#action_12415177 ] 

Stephane Epardaud commented on JBSEAM-3045:
-------------------------------------------

Now I remember what is related: JBSEAM-2921.

If urlfilter is the first filter, then it fixes JBSEAM-2921.

If urlfilter is the last filter, then it breaks web:authentication-filter.

>    Affects Versions: 2.0.1.GA
>            Reporter: Stephane Epardaud

>             Fix For: 2.1.0.BETA1

> In web.xml, if I configure the urlwritefilter before the seamfilter, any basic authentication defined in components.xml with 	
> <web:authentication-filter url-pattern="/feed/*" auth-type="basic" realm="MyRealm" precedence="0"/>
> will be ignored.
> That is, pages in the /feed/* url space will not ask for authentication, and any security restrictions requiring those pages to be accessed as logged in users will throw exceptions.
> If the urlrewritefilter is defined within the seamfilter, then all works well, except that I'm not sure outboud rewrite rules will work correctly.
> I haven't found any documentation relating the order in which these filters must be declared in the Seam documentation.
> If this is not a bug, perhaps it would be nice to document it?
