HttpServletRequest.getRemoteUser returns null
758488Jun 16 2010 — edited Nov 2 2010Problem Description: Hi,
I develop a web application to interface eBusiness and Portal. The way how it works is :
1. User go to eBiz and then presented with SSO login page. user enters his login and password.
2.A redirection was set up previously in eBiz, so eBiz will redirect user to my web application (a servlet)
3. In my web application, I try to get the user name using HttpServletRequest.getRemoteUser but it return null. I try use other methods as well such as getHeader(x-oracle-cache-user), getHeader(Osso-User-Dn), and they all return null.
Please advise? Do I have to protect my app using SSO by inserting it in mod_osso.conf ? I don't think so but just to guide you to the answer.
Thanks
