eInfiniti 0 Report post Posted December 6, 2009 Hi. I am trying to set up Tomcat JDBCRealm form-based security for a project. For some reason, a JSP/html file with CSS style sheets associated it won't work with the login form. Please help if you can. The login.jsp file is as follows. Without those 3 lines in blue color, the form-based security login works fine. But, with the blue lines, the login.jsp webpage will not show up as specified by the .css files; it will only display a plain webpage without any colors, graphics or the correct line-up. When I enter a correct combination of username and password in the form and hit the "Go" button, the browser will redirect to the SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css file rather than the correct page for login success. When I enter a wrong combination, nothing will go wrong and the next page will be the login failure page. <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd;<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml/;<head><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /><%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=utf-8" pageEncoding="utf-8" %><title>Project 2</title>[color= #0000FF]<link href="project2.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /><script src="SpryAssets/SpryMenuBar.js" type="text/javascript"></script><link href="SpryAssets/SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />[/color]</head><body><h1>Login to Project 2</h1><p>If you have been issued a username and password, key them in here now!</p><form method="POST" action="j_security_check"><table> <tr> <td colspan="2">Login to the Tomcat-Demo application:</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Name:</td> <td><input type="text" name="j_username" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td>Password:</td> <td><input type="password" name="j_password"/ ></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><input type="submit" value="Go" /></td> </tr></table></form></body></html> After some observations, my intuition tells me that it is probably because the login file combination that is not specified correctly in web.xml. It seems that specifying the login.jsp file alone is not enough to have the colors, graphics and correct line-up displayed. Following is what is currently in web.xml with login.jsp alone specified as the form login page. It seems to me that the .css files also need to be specified somehow to make it work correctly. If I am correct, how should I specify the file combination in the form login page field? If not, how do I resolve the problem to allow form-based security to work with the CSS files. Thanks! <login-config> <auth-method>FORM</auth-method> <realm-name>Project 2 Protected Area</realm-name> <form-login-config> <form-login-page>/login.jsp</form-login-page> <form-error-page>/login_failure.html</form-error-page> </form-login-config></login-config> Notice from rvalkass: Please remember to use BBCodes around code.
