spring security and glassfish 2.1

[tac]

At first: For something like spring-roo i was waiting for. Great Idea. Playing something with spring-roo (M2) makes fun. "mvn tomcat:run" works as expected. But my target container will be glassfish. Is that exception related to environment differences between glassfish and tomcat? Did someone try glassfish too?

Hi,

Thanks for making us aware of this problem!

I have just tested this myself and it appears that GlassFish has problems with the wildcard matching pattern for the contextConfigLocation param in the web.xml.

I got it to work by explicitly specifying the application contexts used in this application:

	
<context-param>
	<param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
	<param-value>classpath:applicationContext.xml
	classpath:applicationContext-security.xml</param-value></context-param>

I will raise a Jira ticket in Roo so we can review our default application context handling.

Btw: there seems to be a bug ticket for this in the GlassFish bug tracker:
https://glassfish.dev.java.net/issue...ug.cgi?id=5441

Hope this helps!


Cheers,

Stefan
