Re: Problem accessing authentication session in portal sitemap

[Andrew MacDonald <an...@yahoo.com>]

Yes, of course.  I should've done that in the original
post, sorry.

Here's the authentication part where the skin variable
is added (from user-data-test.xml):

<map:pipeline internal-only="true">
	<map:match pattern="sunrise-authuser">
        <map:aggregate element="auth">
            <map:part
src="resources/sunrise-user.xml"/>
            <map:part
src="resources/user-data-test.xml"/>
        </map:aggregate>
        <map:transform src="styles/authenticate.xsl">
            <map:parameter
name="use-request-parameters" value="true"/>
        </map:transform>
        <map:serialize type="xml"/>
...

Here's the authentication context:

<authentication>
<ID>anonymous</ID>
<role>guest</role>
<data>
<user>anonymous</user>
</data>
<skin>minimal</skin>
<type>cocoon.authentication</type>
<media>html</media>
</authentication>

Later on, in the main pipeline I have this:

<map:match pattern="css/*.css">
    <map:act type="auth-protect">
	<map:parameter name="handler"
value="portal-handler"/>
    	<map:read mime-type="text/css"
src="skins/{skin}/css/{1}.css"/>
    </map:act>
</map:match>

I realized after I posted that to access the
authentication context I need the auth-protect act. 
However, now that I've added it, it doesn't seem to
access that code at all.  For example, even if I
hardcode the skin directory, it still doesn't work. 
Instead of {skin} I've also tried
{session-context:authentication/authentication/skin}
but that doesn't work either.

Thanks for any help,
Andrew

If the user is not logged in, how do you expect the CSS to be loaded?
You could maybe have an unprotected pipeline for anonymous user, or
match the skin name directly in the pattern.  AFAICT, auth-protect is
not appropriate for resources like CSS.  You could also use <map:act
type="auth-loggedIn"> to check whether the user is logged in before
reading the CSS.
