Issue

  • What is the EAP 6 equivalent to the EAP 5 WebAuthentication module?

  • We want to perform programmatic web authentication. However, the WebAuthentication module (which we were using on EAP 5.x) does not exist on EAP 6.

  • No authenticator available for programmatic login in EAP 6 and we are getting the following exception :

11:18:26,872 ERROR [aaa.bbb.ccc] (http-localhost/127.0.0.1 :80-1) S2GPR Security: User authentication (login: adm) denied the container:. Javax.servlet. ServletException: JBWEB000052 On authenticator available for programmatic login
