JDBC Realm with case insensitive user name
Hi all,
I basically need to implement case insensitive user names, can this be
done with a servlet filter or do I need to subclass JDBC realm:
public class CustomJdbcRealm extends JDBCRealm {
public CustomJdbcRealm() {
super();
}
public Principal authenticate(String username, String credentials) {
return super.authenticate(username.toLowerCase(), credentials);
}
}
And in server.xml:
<Realm className="mypackage.CustomJdbcRealm" ...>
I tried this approach but get class not found exceptions, I am using
tomcat6 in development and 5.5 in production. I package this class in a
jar and drop it in the $CATALENA_BASE/server/lib folder.
Thanks
Peter

Hi Christopher,
I knew that MySql does this, but I am using Postgres for this project
and don't know if it is possible, the default is case sensitive for
Postgres.
The unique key option is out, as it has to be an id field for our
database beans to work, but a unique constraint is possible I guess...
maybe worth looking at!
Thanks

Er, before you get too far on this, check to see if your database
already does this without you realizing that it does.
For instance, MySQL does case-insensitive VARCHAR and CHAR lookups
unless the column type is marked BINARY or you cast the type to BINARY
in your SQL query.
For instance, 'chris' = 'CHRIS' in MySQL inder normal circumstances.
Primary and unique keys respect this behavior, too, so I can't have
"chris" and "CHRIS" as two separate usernames in my user table where
"username" is a UNIQUE key.
You might be able to save yourself a lot of trouble.

David, you are also arrogant!! I know what I wrote, and I know where the
classloader looks for things so Tims answer is irrelevant and so is
yours given that I have placed the jar in the correct place already and
configured server.xml correctly. You also lack basic reading skills if
you cant see this.

Tim Funk actually (and correctly) asked the OP to read the docs. I
would add that the dev system should be on the same version as the
production system. To cross versions like this between development and
production is counter-productive. $CATALINA_BASE/server/lib works for
5.5, but not for 6. In tomcat 6, it should be $CATALINA_BASE/lib by
default.

erm, what?
did or did not the original question end with a query about packaging
and class not found exceptions?
someone had already taken care of the case-sensitivity point, i was
attempting to address the other one, as had Tim previously (who also got
a sharpish response from the OP).

You know pid, just because people ask questions doesn't mean they are
stupid, so why treat them that way? If you can read 'carefully' you can
notice that the path was given as well as the relevant config in
server.xml. So If the path was incorrect you could see it immediately, I
didn't write this because it seemed like a good idea, it was there for a
purpose.

You are not compelled to answer, in-fact it is preferred that you don't
answer questions if you are going to diverge off the actual problem,
because it side-tracks serious readers, as is becoming the case with
this question, and the likelihood of a solution being found is
diminished... can you understand the irritation??

(An actual error message would also be useful.)
You say you are using Tomcat 6 for development, and Tomcat 5.5 in
production. Is the error occurring in development or production?
Which version of Tomcat are you compiling the classes against? The
internal class structure of Tomcat 6 is not guaranteed to be identical
to Tomcat 5.5, so it's entirely possibly you're using a class that
doesn't exist in 5.5, if you're compiling against 6 and deploying
against 5.5. (or vice versa).
p
{
The most common reason that a ClassNotFoundException is encountered
while mixing testing/deployment on different versions of Tomcat is that
jars have been placed in the wrong location.
List members usually offer up the obvious solutions first, because
they're the most common solutions. Especially given that one message is
usually insufficient to determine what the users level of knowledge is.
Fsck knows why I'm bothering to explain that though.

You referred to ClassNotFoundException's - his answer is therefore valid.
Perhaps you can elaborate on when you're getting this exception if we're

pretty dumb question, please help
Posted by Demetris Zavorotnichenko <fg...@cytanet.com.cy>.
Hi guys.
I have a simple question
I have Apache Tomcat 6 runing on Windows Server 2003 IIS
I have a .*WAR application that I run from /webapps
So I would run it like this: http://localhost/myapp/Myapp
My application has to get Google map Keys from Google.
In order to get the Key I have to specify in Google the URL in which I will
run Google map.
So what do I tell google? http://localhost/myapp/Myapp doesn't work. so any
suggestions would be greate.
Another question.
I want to run Myapp not from /webapps but from another folder. So I have my
*war application in C:\myapp
How do I setup Tomcat to be able to look in that directory ? Or what should
I do in this case?
Or I can't run the App from another folder?

In that case - (I think) it probably won't work - override instead:
protected PreparedStatement credentials(Connection dbConnection,
String username)
protected synchronized PreparedStatement roles(Connection dbConnection,
String username)
Where in both instances you call the super() version with a lower username.
Then in config - make sure your userNameCol="lower(USER_NAME)" - of
course using your username and lower DB implementation.

Thanks for stating the obvious Tim, in 5.5 the 'server' directory is
supposed to be the correct place! the question is if the implementation
is valid.

The dir structure changed from 5.5 to 6 so you need to place your files
in different directories depending on the version. See the version
specific docs details.
