session listener not working
Hi,
I would like to insert a new entry in database capturing the session and
user details upon each time the user login into portal and logout the
portal.
I have written a listener class and extended HttpSessionListener and
overrided sessionCreated() and sessionDestroyed() methods and added below
entry in my web.xml. But it does not invoke my listener during user login or
logout. Can you please let me know the correct way of implementing.
<listener>
<listener-class>com.mycompany.MyHttpSessionListener</listener-class>
</listener>
Thanks for your time.
Regards,
Srini.

David,
The session listener worked correctly. I was not placing the listener
correctly. I placed the session listener in my web application's web.xml
instead of keeping it in jetspeed's web.xml file. I am sorry for the
confusion and i posted it so that others may know the reason behind my
error. Secondly, with reference to valve as explained in other threads its
still the same and i hope iam not doing any silly mistake as i have did in
session listener case.
Thanks,
Srini.

David,
The jetspeed version iam using is 2.2.0 and "create new session on login" is
already set to true. May be it is true from 2.2.0 or the person who worked
on our server earlier might have made made it to true.

What version of Jetspeed? I believe the "create new session on login"
was set to false in previous releases:
<bean id='org.apache.jetspeed.administration.PortalAuthenticationConfiguration'
class='org.apache.jetspeed.administration.PortalAuthenticationConfigurationImpl'>
<meta key="j2:cat" value="default" />
<!-- create new session upon authentication -->
<constructor-arg index='0'>
<value>true</value>
</constructor-arg>
In the current release its set to true. See the Spring configuration
file "administration.xml"

You can also bypass active authentication following these steps:
1. Login Filter
Configure the WEB-INF/web.xml to use the PortalFilter for logging in
by uncommented the PortalFilter and its mapping:
<filter>
<filter-name>PortalFilter</filter-name>
<filter-class>org.apache.jetspeed.login.filter.PortalFilter</filter-class>
</filter>
...
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>PortalFilter</filter-name>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
2.Portal Login Portlet
Edit the default-page.psml, changing the login portlet to the
filter-based login portlet as shown below. Make sure to also change
the fragment id. Change:
<fragment id="dp-12" type="portlet" name="j2-admin::LoginPortlet">
...
to ..
<fragment id="dp-12a" type="portlet" name="j2-admin::PortalLoginPortlet">
...
Consider writing your own Portal Filter, and putting your custom code there:
public class MyPortalFilter extends PortalFilter implements Filter
Recommend creating a simple maven jar project with this dependency:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.portals.jetspeed-2</groupId>
<artifactId>jetspeed-api</artifactId>
<version>${jetspeed-2.version}</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
and then building a jar to hold MyPortalFilter, and dropping that jar
into the Jetspeed deployment

Thanks Woonsan, I understood the reason of not able to get the values in my
valve. Thanks to David and Ron too.

Re: session listener not working
Posted by Woonsan Ko <wo...@yahoo.com>.
Hi Srini,
It is not possible to read username/password form data in a valve because the login form submission is handled by a dedicated JAAS form login servlet (/login/login) configured in /jetspeed/WEB-INF/web.xml.
The j2-admin login portlet submits the login form to /login/proxy servlet, which redirects to /login/redirector servlet to trigger security check of the servlet container as configured for JAAS Form-based authentication in web.xml. These login related servlets are independent from Jetspeed pipelines/valves.
The login related servlets (o.a.j.login.LoginServlet, LoginRedirectorServlet, ...) communicates with the browser multiple times and so those store the login form data in session temporarily. Of course, after login process, the temporary data is removed.
So, one simple solution could be override the default Jetspeed login servlet(s) to catch the form data for other uses. However, it could be dangerous, it's up to you to do that with careful security consideration.
For example, if you store the data in http session, then you could read the data in your custom valve later and remove those after doing something necessary.
HTH,
Woonsan

Re: session listener not working
Posted by SriniPitta <sr...@gmail.com>.
Thanks for your reply Ron. With reference to my previous post
dated(18/11/2010 11:23 AM), my requirement is used to store the logged-in
user details in a common shared database such that other php+perl based
application running in different server can use loggedin user credentials
from shared database.
As you referred, i can get the username after the login. But as per my
requirement not all users logging into jetspeed portal are registered inside
portal. This is reason, when user logins using jetspeed default login
portlet (j2admin::LoginPortlet) i want to use valve which can identify if
the user is registered in portal or not and if NOT, i wanted to create the
user inside my valve and when jetspeed login valve validates it will find
the user i created. This is one of the reason i wanted to have my valve
called first before the jetspeed-login valve is called.
The issue i have now is, i could not get the username from Requextcontext
inside my valve that user enters on j2admin::loginportlet. Please be
informed that its not my login portlet. I am using j2admin::loginportlet. I
would like to get username and password that user enters while login such
that i can check in my valve before the jetspeed login valve is called.
Please do let me know if i am not clear.
Thanks,
Srini.

Re: session listener not working

Why do you need the password?
If you do really need the password, can you not get that when you set up
the account and store it in a safe place and get it later.
You have the username after the login.

Re: session listener not working
Posted by SriniPitta <sr...@gmail.com>.
Sure, even if i allow the jetspeed's login to go first, my valve does not
read the username and password from request context. How can i read the
username and password values from request context in my valve?
Thanks.

Why not let Jetspeed's login go first and then decide what to do if they
get pass or do not pass.

Re: session listener not working
Posted by SriniPitta <sr...@gmail.com>.
Ron,
I have added my own valve to the jetspeed-pipeline inside the file
'jetspeed/WEB-INF/assembly/pipelines.xml'. My valve is being invoked
however, i am unable to read the username and password using the
RequestContext. Secondly, how can i configure so that my valve is invoked
first before any other valves in jetspeed-pipeline. My valve is being
invoked after login.
MyValve code snippet:
========================
public class MyLoginValidationValveImpl extends AbstractValve implements
Valve{
.....
public void invoke(RequestContext request, ValveContext context)
throws PipelineException {
String un = request.getRequest().getParameter(LoginConstants.USERNAME)); //
does not get username
request.getRequestParameter(LoginConstants.USERNAME)); // does not get
username
}
===============================
Existing entries in pipelines.xml:
====================
<bean id='pipeline-map' class='java.util.HashMap'>
<meta key="j2:cat" value="default" />
<constructor-arg>
<map>
<entry key='/portlet'>
<value>portlet-pipeline</value>
</entry>
<entry key='/portal'>
<value>jetspeed-pipeline</value>
</entry>
<entry key='/ajaxapi'>
<value>ajax-pipeline</value>
</entry>
<entry key='/login'>
<value>jetspeed-pipeline</value>
</entry> ..............
=============================
I added my valve 'MyLoginValidationValve' to jetspeed-pipeline in below :
==============================
<bean id="jetspeed-pipeline"
class="org.apache.jetspeed.pipeline.JetspeedPipeline"
init-method="initialize">
<meta key="j2:cat" value="default" />
<constructor-arg>

Re: session listener not working
Posted by Ron Wheeler <rw...@artifact-software.com>.
I little more of the puzzle is revealed.
Have you looked at the description of the valve in the processing pipeline.
You can probably add your own valve to the login pipeline to capture login.
You are probably going to have to implement a timout or watchdog process
that cleans up your database after users just leave without logging out.

Re: session listener not working
Posted by SriniPitta <sr...@gmail.com>.
I agree but I cannot put the user's information in HTTP session as my
requirement is to store the jetspeed user logged in information in a common
shared database such that another php+perl based application running in a
different apache server can know about the user login by seeing the new
entry in the database and will use this information for rendering a page in
php based application.
Thanks,
Srini.

Re: session listener not working
Posted by Ron Wheeler <rw...@artifact-software.com>.
Have you considered putting the data in the HTTP Session data structure
that is held while the user is logged in.
This data is only available to portlets serving that user but you can
store whatever you want there for the duration of the session.
It is faster and easier to access since it does not require database access.
You might get better advice if you described a bit more about why you
want to store transitory info.

Can you not use the logging done by Jetspeed already?
========================
Thanks for your reply. I see that "USER_ACTIVITY" table has the entry for
each login-success and login-failure. However, I would like to delete the
user logged in information from the table upon user logging out. I do not
want to mess up or delete the entries from Jetspeed's database as iam pretty
sure that my requirement will be extended. Thanks for your time.
Regards,
Srini.
