We have system that's deployed on Tomcat. First time if we go to http:\\x.y.z\web system is showing login dialog from tomcat. After login we go to File\Exit. System redirect us to http:\\x.y.z\res\logout.html. If we go directly to http:\\x.y.z\web, system don't show login, but we are directly in system....

Can please someone help me... I saw the problem is with RAP on Tomcat and filters...

Thanks

Hi there

See this forum post http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/m/1064181/ and especially the linked stack overflow post (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2180206/how-to-force-jetty-to-ask-for-credentials-with-basic-authentication-after-invali).

The browser caches the login data and automatically sends them whenever the server requests them, as long as the browser is not closed. To avoid that you could implement the trick mentioned in the stack overflow post (in a custom basic auth filter): Make sure a new realm name is used whenever the session gets invalidated, e.g. by adding the timestamp to the real name. I haven't tried it but I think it should work.
The alternative is to use form authentication, but this will probably take more time.

Hope it helps
Claudio
