Javaee Jboss j_security_check login always fails


I want to do a simple j_security_check Login for my Java EE project, I found this Tutorial to set it up with WildFly Server but could not yet get it to work. Everytime I try to login, I get redirected to the error page.

Here is my code stuff:

WildFly standalone_full.xml code I added for Security configuration

<security-domains>
                <security-domain name="testDSSS" cache-type="default">
                    <authentication>
                        <login-module code="Database" flag="required">
                            <module-option name="dsJndiName" value="java:/testDSSS"/>
                            <module-option name="rolesQuery" value="SELECT role, 'Roles' FROM users WHERE username=?"/>
                            <module-option name="hashAlgorithm" value="MD5"/>
                            <module-option name="hashEncoding" value="hex"/>
                            <module-option name="principalsQuery" value="SELECT password from users WHERE username=?"/>
                        </login-module>
                    </authentication>
                    <authorization>
                        <policy-module code="Database" flag="required">
                            <module-option name="dsJndiName" value="java:/testDSSS"/>
                            <module-option name="rolesQuery" value="SELECT role, 'Roles' FROM users WHERE username=?"/>
                            <module-option name="hashAlgorithm" value="MD5"/>
                            <module-option name="hashEncoding" value="hex"/>
                            <module-option name="principalsQuery" value="SELECT password from users WHERE username=?"/>
                        </policy-module>
                    </authorization>
                </security-domain>

Anybody knows what I am doing wrong?


Solution

  • I had the same problem. For my situation it turn out the SQL queries (rolesquery and principalsquery) in standalone-full.xml were incorrect as I dont use the column names username and password, but something different.
