Hi,
I'm trying to make my first struts application and I'm fighting with
authentication and roles.
I've only one jsp page (index.jsp) that prints authentication type ("BASIC")
and user roles.
<%
authentication+="Authentication " + request.getAuthType();
if (request.isUserInRole("ADMIN")) { role += "ADMIN; " ; }
if (request.isUserInRole("USER")) { role += "USER; " ; }
%>
<br>----------------------------------------------------
<br><%= authentication %>
<br><%= "ROLES : " + role %>
<br>----------------------------------------------------
<br>
Then there's an empty form with a "submit" button.
<html:form action="/index">
<html:submit value="SUBMIT" />
</html:form>
the execute method in action is the following :
public ActionForward execute(
ActionMapping mapping,
ActionForm form,
HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception {
String forward = "index";
return mapping.findForward(forward);
}
When I enter my application the first time it shows exactly authentication
BASIC and ROLES : ADMIN
but when I press "submit" it shows "authentication NULL" and "ROLES : "
I'm using tomcat 4.1.18 (I also tried .24 and .27 !) and struts 1.1
WHERE' S THE ERROR ??
Thanks
