ADF Security

Question

Dear All;
I am new to ADF security, my target is to create a web application, with authentication through a login page, and session tracking through out the users session, i used to do this all in code, the JSP way, where i check the session in every page, to check that there is a logged in user, i read the forum based authentication, and i thought it could make things faster, and more secure for me, i did a login page and an error page where the username and password are validated against a table called user and added refrence to these pages to the web.xml properties, and then from adf security of the main menu page i selected to enforce authentication and gave it the URL for the login, and error page, only when i run this page, i am getting a can not find faces config file, i am sure something is missing, the tutorial i have discusses validation through the ADF administration page, i want to validate throught the database,
Links for tutorials, or any information would be highly appreciated
thank you all in advance
regards
Halim

Did you put something like
     <application>
          <name>current-workspace-app</name>
          <login-modules>
               <login-module>
                    <class>YOUR_CLASS</class>
                    <control-flag>required</control-flag>
                    <options>
                         <option>
                              <name>data_source_name</name>
                              <value>YOUR_DS_NAME</value>
                         </option>
                         <option>
                              <name>roles_fk_column</name>
                              <value>VALUE</value>
                         </option>
                         <option>
                              <name>user_pk_column</name>
                              <value>VALUE</value>
                         </option>
                         <option>
                              <name>user_table</name>
                              <value>VALUE</value>
                         </option>
                         <option>
                              <name>roles_column</name>
                              <value>VALUE</value>
                         </option>
                         <option>
                              <name>roles_table</name>
                              <value>VALUE</value>
                         </option>
                         <option>
                              <name>username_column</name>
                              <value>VALUE</value>
                         </option>
                         <option>
                              <name>password_column</name>
                              <value>VALUE</value>
                         </option>
                    </options>
               </login-module>
          </login-modules>
     </application>
to the <jazn-loginconfig> part in system-jazn-data.xml file in your JDEVHOME/jdev\system\oracle.j2ee.10.1.3.41.57\embedded-oc4j\config\ folder. Plus, you should check if your encoding the passwords, ...
As I said, we're using custom loginModule, I'm not sure for DBTableOraDataSourceLoginModule. Verify you've done everything from the tutorial.
