Error while accessing the CXF RESTful services uri

[user100]

When I try to access the RSTFul services uri, I get the following exception:

Cannot access WADL: Please restart your REST application, and refresh this page.

If you still see this error and if you are accessing this page using Firefox with Firebug plugin, then
you need to disable firebug for local files. That is from Firefox menubar, check
Tools > Firebug > Disable Firebug for Local Files



When I try to access the URL for my app, or the WADL, I get the HTTP 404 page not found exception.


Folliwng is my web.xml, where I have configured the spring security....


<listener>
<listener-class>org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoade rListener</listener-class>
</listener>

<filter>
<filter-name>springSecurityFilterChain</filter-name>
<filter-class>org.springframework.web.filter.DelegatingFil terProxy</filter-class>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>springSecurityFilterChain</filter-name>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>CXFServlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>
org.apache.cxf.transport.servlet.CXFServlet
</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>

<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>CXFServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>




Following is part of my RESTful service interface:

@GET
@Path("/login.jsp")
public void login(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res)
{
_log.debug("in login method...");
String username = req.getParameter("j_username");
String password = req.getParameter("j_password");
_log.debug("username = " + username);
_log.debug("password = " + password);

}


I have deployed this in the Tomcat server.

If I access http://localhost:8080/myServer/login.jsp, I get the 404 error.

And in the tomcat server I see the following stack trace when I access the above URL:

Please explain how this relates to Spring Security. For example... Does it work if you remove the Spring Security Filter? Does it work if you remove the Spring Security Configuration (if so what part and please provide the configuration)? If you are using global-method-security have you specified global-method-security@proxy-target-class="true"?

PS: Please use the code tags (i.e. the # button).
