jboss 4: enable UsersRolesLoginModule, where must users.properties files be placed?

  • 772

I have an application (CQ5) that requires enabling unauthenticatedIdentity on jbossdir/conf/login-config.xml I used:

   <authentication>
      <login-module code = "org.jboss.security.auth.spi.UsersRolesLoginModule"
         flag = "required" >
      <module-option name="unauthenticatedIdentity">nobody</module-option>
    </login-module>
   </authentication>

then I tried to copy jbossdir/conf/props/jmx-console-users.properties,jmx-console-roles.properties into users.properties and roles.properies (same dir).

I still get this error:

ERROR [org.jboss.security.auth.spi.UsersRolesLoginModule] Failed to load users/passwords/role files java.io.IOException: No properties file: users.properties or defaults: defaultUsers.properties found

where should I put those files?

  1. As I know there is 2 places where you can put these files:

    1. In conf dir, and then you reference to them by:

      <module-option name="usersProperties">props/jmx-console-users.properties<module-option>

    2. You can put these file in WEB-INF/classess dir and reference to them just by name:

      <module-option name="usersProperties">web-console-users.properties</module-option>

    You can find these in web-console definition. The file with user names is located under: ./deploy/management/console-mgr.sar/web-console.war/WEB-INF/classes/web-console-users.properties
