JAAS and JBOSS 5 problem with principal

StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1295938

Question

I am working with a piece of code implementing JAAS LoginModule and in the commit method I set the principal with user UUID: 

subject.getPrincipals().add(new SimplePrincipal(userUUID)

But for some reason when I access the user from EJB Context:

context.getCallerPrincipal().getName()

I receive the login name of the user instead of the userUUID I was expecting.

Should I implement custom principal or how to solve this?

Thank you!

Was it helpful?

Solution 2

Could be a JBoss 5 bug after all: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/EJBTHREE-1756

Fixed 11. Feb 2010, now waiting a next JBoss release :-)

OTHER TIPS

The following workaround seems to work:

  1. Get a copy of JBoss 6.0.0.Final
  2. Copy the file $JBOSS_HOME/common/lib/jboss-ejb3-security.jar to the JBoss 5.1 installation directory.
  3. Restart JBoss
