Invalid Security role-name error in Web Project

Question

Hi All,
I have imported a J2EE application project built in JBOSS into NWDS 7.1.
While building the project i get the following error
<b>CHKJ3020E:Invalid Security role-name error: PEHNTAHO_ADMIN</b>
This error directs me to the following code in web.xml
<security-constraint>
          <display-name>Default JSP Security Constraints</display-name>
          <web-resource-collection>
               <web-resource-name>Portlet Directory</web-resource-name>
               <url-pattern>/jsp/*</url-pattern>
               <http-method>GET</http-method>
               <http-method>POST</http-method>
          </web-resource-collection>
          <auth-constraint>
               <b><role-name>PEHNTAHO_ADMIN</role-name></b>
          </auth-constraint>
          <user-data-constraint>
               <transport-guarantee>NONE</transport-guarantee>
          </user-data-constraint>
     </security-constraint>
<b>I have tried out the following things to resolve this issue :</b>
<b>1) Remove the role manually</b>(as suggested by various people in other J2EE forums), but then some other error came in to picture
<b>2)Then I added the following code in web.xml</b>
<security-role>
          <role-name>PEHNTAHO_ADMIN</role-name>
     </security-role>
Then the above mentioned build error gets resolved, but then I get the following error while deploying the application.

<b>3) I had also added the following code in web-j2ee-engine.xml</b>

     </security-role-map>
but still i get the same deployment error.
Please help me in resolving this problem.
Can anybody tell me the use of role "PEHNTAHO_ADMIN"?
Thanks and Regards,
Sruti

Hi Malathy,
Once the users are created in Authentication Provider, and once the roles are created in Weblogic Server, You just have to map users to roles in Jazn-data.xml.
Could you please let us know you created a roles named users in WLS ?
Thanks & Regards,
Murali.
