J_security_check & error pages

I've inherited an app that utilizes j_security_check and everything works fine. I am trying to find a way to have multiple error pages (or allow the current error page to be customized), depending on the reason for the login failure. It seems you can only specify one error page in web.xml (is this correct?). Can you extract any information from the server (we're using Jboss2.2.1-Tomcat3.2.1) about why the login failed?
Thanks

Assuming you are talking about the form-error-page tag,...
Even though you can specify one resource here, in the code that sits behind that resource, you could do many different things. Right ? For example, if that resource is set to map to a JSP, in that JSP, you could forward to one of different JSPs in turn. Is that in line with what you were/are trying to do ?

J_security_check - custom error page

Hi all,
I've successfully run jazndemo - callerInfo sample from
Oracle 9iAS and OC4J - version 9.0.3
I then modified web.xml to use FORM-based auth,
instead of BASIC auth.
I utilize j_security_check for this purpose.
FYI:
- I use JAZNUserManager with XML (jazn-data.xml)
- My browser is IE ver 5.0
- I use OC4J 9.0.3.0.0
This is the excerpt of my web.xml:
<login-config>
<auth-method>FORM</auth-method>
<form-login-config>
<form-login-page>login.html</form-login-page>
<form-error-page>error.html</form-error-page>
</form-login-config>
</login-config>
It does run properly when I supplied correct userId and
correct password, BUT if I supplied wrong UserId and/or
password, OC4J ALWAYS display generic 403 (Forbidden) page !!
Is it a bug?? It should display error.html instead.
Please give me a hand on this, this thing really
frustrate me..
Any pointer would be a great help,
Thanks in advance,

what do you get when you enter in an invalid username/password - your logonError.jsp? page
How do you access this page - is your destination page available, and working?
I take it you are trying to access /RnsttHome.jsp
Check the spelling of your URL - maybe try accessing another file under securlty to see if that one works?
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
-- It doesn't really matter whether I enter a correct username/password or an invalid one, cause I get the 404 Error. I am not re-directed to the logonError.jsp at all. I can only see that the browser is looking for J_security_check...at least that's what is written on the url when I get the 404 error.
e.g.
http://localhost/myapplication/j_security_check
-- The destination page is RnsttHone.jsp and it is working fine.I don't think that this is the problem.
-- I have tried accessing other files as well.That's not the problem.They all have the same problem with j_security_check...

No, that's not the problem.I am sure that it finds the pages "logon.jsp" and "logonError.jsp".There is no need to remove the "/".
The problem is that after I am redirected to the logon.jsp and enter a login-name/password I press the submit button and then I get the 404 error.
Have you configured Apache to recognise the "j_security_check" URL to be forwarded to Tomcat appropriately? It probably does not do this by default.
That might be the problem.Could you please tell me how to check if Apache is configured appropriately?Which configuration file should I check and for what parameter should I look for?

I am working on a JSF web application deployed in Tomcat 5.0.I was trying to redirect 404 and 500 error pages to custom error pages.But the error pages are not getting loaded and i am getting normal Tocat 404 status page.
I am giving the web.xml entry for the error page defenition.
<error-page>
          <error-code>404</error-code>
          <location>/faces/displayErrorpage.jsp</location>

Please help me out to solve this problem.Its urgent.I will be greatful for any kind of help.
Note: The same application working fine,ie,the error page is getting loaded while deploying WAS 6.0.

That's a specification version. I was asking for the implementation and version. Is it the Sun reference implementation (Sun JSF RI)? If so, which build?
It works flawlessly here on the latest build of Sun JSF RI 1.1, the 1.1_02. You can get the latest build at [http://javaserverfaces.dev.java.net]. I was using Tomcat 6.0.14 by the way, it might make difference.
Does it work if you use plain vanilla JSP files and do not pass the request through the FacesServlet? I recall some bugs related to it, but I am not sure anymore if it is related to the JSF implementation or application server used.

Error-page tag not valid in global-web-application.xml ?

Hi!
From what I understand about the global-web-application.xml file in Oracle's documentation, the content of the web-app tag should be inherited to all web application as a web.xml content.
One of the web.xml tags is error-page, which contains the page url for the standard return codes (404, 500, and so on).
If I put the error-page on the web.xml inside a web application, it works as expected.
But if I don't put this tag inside the web applicaction, but in the global-web-applicacion.xml (web-app) tag, it doesn't work.
We are testing the 404 error page, but I don't know if it is because the application server can't find the error page or because the global-web-application.xml isn't being inherited correctly.
Where is this file supposed to be looked for? Or the only way to do this is by writing the configuration on all web applications?
We are using 9.0.3

Recommended way for binding the list event handler to the list instance is through feature receivers.
You need to create a feature file like the below sample
<?xmlversion="1.0"encoding="utf-8"?>
<Feature xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/"
Id="{20FF80BB-83D9-41bc-8FFA-E589067AF783}"
Title="Installs MyFeatureReceiver"
Description="Installs MyFeatureReceiver" Hidden="False" Version="1.0.0.0" Scope="Site"
ReceiverClass="ClassLibrary1.MyFeatureReceiver"
ReceiverAssembly="ClassLibrary1, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=6c5894e55cb0f391">
</Feature>For registering/binding the list event handler to the list instance, use the below sample codeusing System;
using Microsoft.SharePoint;
namespace ClassLibrary1
    public class MyFeatureReceiver: SPFeatureReceiver
        public override void FeatureActivated(SPFeatureReceiverProperties properties)
            SPSite siteCollection = properties.Feature.Parent as SPSite;
            SPWeb site = siteCollection.AllWebs["Docs"];
            SPList list = site.Lists["MyList"];
            SPEventReceiverDefinition rd = list.EventReceivers.Add();
            rd.Name = "My Event Receiver";
            rd.Class = "ClassLibrary1.MyListEventReceiver1";
            rd.Assembly = "ClassLibrary1, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,
                PublicKeyToken=6c5894e55cb0f391";
            rd.Data = "My Event Receiver data";
            rd.Type = SPEventReceiverType.FieldAdding;
            rd.Update();
        public override void FeatureDeactivating(SPFeatureReceiverProperties properties)
            SPSite sitecollection = properties.Feature.Parent as SPSite;
            SPWeb site = sitecollection.AllWebs["Docs"];
            SPList list = site.Lists["MyList"];
            foreach (SPEventReceiverDefinition rd in list.EventReceivers)
                if (rd.Name == "My Event Receiver")
                    rd.Delete();
        public override void FeatureInstalled(SPFeatureReceiverProperties properties)
        public override void FeatureUninstalling(SPFeatureReceiverProperties properties)
}Reference link: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff713710(v=office.12).aspxOther ways of registering the list event handlers to the List instance are through code, stsadm commands and content types.

How to call common error pages for all the exceptions

Hi All
I have created the common ErrorPage in my application. In case of any error whether SQL,IO or JBO I want that error page be displayed. In the page definition I have given the errorpage name and also defined the error page as IS_ERROR_PAGE = true.But it is throwing Jbo exception at the top of the page itself.No redirection to the error page is done.
Though I have gone through various threads in this forum but still its not clear how to get the things working.
Can anyone please help me out in this regard?

Hi,
I assume you mean that you set the error page in the web.xml file. Note that exceptions are handled first by the JSF framework. Please have a look at the developer guide

I Always end up at an error page when I test my design!

Greetings,
Ladies and gentle men of the forum, does any one knows how I could fix this problem that I am having with the IIS server.
When I enter http://localhost it will take me to the home page but when I open my web site, which I designed with Dreamweaver, and test the site to see how it will function I will end up at an error page showing message below the line.
I also created site and testing server. Does any know how I could correct this problem so I could work safely? I am also using SQL server for database. If there any one have any idea on what I should do please contact me.
The page cannot be found
The page you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.
Please try the following:
If you typed the page address in the Address bar, make sure that it is spelled correctly.

Isn't http://localhost your on premises server? I wonder if you've actually uploaded your site to the www.? A local host would be your build database and where you upload from, no? You should have a database on the internet at a secure server consisting of: Host; User ID; Password; Directory. Then, you upload to that server and then it's just a matter of accessing and testing the site via your URL. Otherwise, you can always test away by accessing the localhost database somewhere on your premises. This is how I see it. If you are getting that error message, it means the database has moved and Dream can't find it. Bummer, because when you do find it you will have to re-establish your links ( I think ).

I'm unable to access my yahoo email account using updated firefox browser, i keep getting error page when I use the mail link on yahoo pages

Since updating Firefox browser, i am unable to gain access to my yahoo email account. I can access the email with Interent Explorer with no trouble. Whenever I click on a mail link on the yahoo sites to check my mail, I get rerouted to an error page ..... "Sorry, we can't find "ca.mg4.mail.yahoo.com/dc/launch?.gx=1". Please check the spelling of the web address." is what is said at top of page whenever I click on any mail links.

This is how I fixed it on my new iPhone 5S. Using the standard yahoo setting on my phone.
You will have to access "managing your app passwords" on your account profile for yahoo. Generate password for your app. For example: "My iPhone 5S'
Go to your Iphone and set up your yahoo mail account on your phone the normal way and you have to use the generated password. instead of the yahoo account password.

How can I set up a custom 404 error page on OSX Server?

I moved my web site to a local server and changed the structure drastically. Unfortunately I am getting hits for information that was on the old server which I haven't put back yet. I'd like to set up a custom 404 Error Page to let people know what's up. In server.app I can set up a 500 error page but not a 404 and when I tried hand coding it into the sites .conf file I really messed things up. It took me a while to get that all corrected!
Thanks for any advice,
Bill W

Found it!
Under the web server Advanced Setting set "Allow overrides using .htaccess" then create an .htaccess file in the root directory with the line:
ErrorDocument 404 notfounderror.html
Use whatever HTML/PHP/etc. document you have created.
