[opencms-dev] Authentication in opencms via Apache

[Oliver Pereira]

Hi,
 
Let me try to explain what i am trying to do.
 
I have developed an application using Opencms 5.3.x in Tomcat 4.1.24
 
I have the basic authentication turned off in Opencms in the
opencms.properties file and using a customised login.jsp to the do the
authentication in Opencms
 
auth.basic=false
auth.form_uri=/XXXXXXXX/login/login.jsp
 
This works without any problems
 
Now i have configured get Apache to serve the static content (images,
css files etc) and the rest of the calls go to tomcat / opencms.
 
But when it comes to authenticating it authenticates but the redirection
to the login.jsp fails.. it says the file cannot be found
 
Hope i have explained my problem in detail
 
Regards,
 
Oliver

	Hi, 

	I have the basic authentication turned off in tomcat and using a
login.jsp to a authenticate user when the user tries to access a
restricted part of the site.

	This works perfectly in Tomcat but currently I am configuring
Apache and Tomcat so that the static content is served via Apache.

	Everything works fine except the redirection to the login page
when trying to authenticate. 

	Any ideas? 

	Regards, 

	Oliver
