slide-admin user creation bug

[stuart macpherson <so...@virgin.net>]

I wonder if I have discovered a bug in Slide-admin.  I have posted this
problem in slide-user before, and received no reply.

 

Tomcat server.xml is configured to use JDBCRealm, and I can add users
directly to the database using SQL.  However, the Slide-admin webapp refuses
to add users to the database, and will not display the users that are
currently in the database.  

 

I am thinking that Slide-admin should know to use the Tomcat user store
settings, and the bizarre thing is that I can log in to Slide-admin as the
user from the JDBCRealm database, but then it doesn't seem to recognise its
existence from then on!  I have trawled the config files and I can find no
setting to tell Slide-admin about JDBCRealm (unless it is done thru some
kind of init-parameter that I don't know about), so I am concluding that it
is a bug (hence this email going also to slide-dev; but also, no-one in
slide-user seems to be replying to this problem).

 

Any kind of feedback whatsoever would be very helpful.  If I am overlooking
something very simple, please tell me rather than ignoring the post as I am
now at a complete loss and I have no other way of finding out.

 

Many thanks

Stu
