Hello everyone!
A few weeks ago I asked about Application Servers. It happens that my bosses are moving to WAS and my web application needs to move along. Problem is I have little idea of application servers.
In my application I used web.xml and tomcat-users.xml to define roles and users. I have to do this in the WAS server, so what do I need to do? I mean, I have read that it defines some security roles in the application.xml that binds with the WAS server, and that they need some ids that look through the ibm-application-bnd.xmi
It also seems that I need some kind of ibm-web-bnd.xmi to just reconfigure my web.xml with the same users (which gets me terribly confused).
Do I need to create these files (I don't have a RAS, just an Eclipse Galileo (yeah, I also sometime think I am playing in hard mode), so I have no way to do this automatically) or can I just configure the application.xml and the web.xml correctly without these files? I have managed myself to more or less create these files and finally create an EAR that the WAS has deployed (correctly, it says).
This sounds a hell of lot complex for just a user validation, so I don't now if I am right or wrong. Probably wrong, since WAS keeps saying "com.ibm.websphere.security.PasswordCheckFailedException: No user wasadmin found".
Is there any insightful documentation of how to do this?
Thanks!
