SPNEGO authentication method with form fallback giving blank page during authentication

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • Kerberos authentication does not complete and a blank page is received instead
  • Authentication request is giving a 200 (OK) response with 0 Content-length instead of expected 401 (Unauthenticated) response with WWW-Authenticate Negotiate header

Environment

  • Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6
  • SPNEGO/Kerberos authentication with FORM authentication fallback configured (i.e. usernamePasswordDomain is set and form-login-config has a fallback page)
