j_security_check (tomcat / not found)
843836May 7 2004 — edited Nov 21 2007Hi,
I have set up some simple realm based authentication using tomcat (via apache via mod_jk connector) and I can get the basic method to work.
I have tried to set up FORM based authentication, and it works up until a point. If I request a protected resource, then it redirects to my login page like it's supposed to.
In the login page, the form action = "<%= response.encodeURL("j_security_check") %>" .
When I submit the form, it just returns a 'object not found error' - the typical 404 type page.
It doesn't recognise what 'j_security_check' is. Is this apache blocking this (because it doesn't know about it) or do I have to somehow 'turn on' the security checking?
Any help appreciated.
