unable to get username with AuthFormLoginRequiredLocation

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,

 

I have a login page which accepts username and password. Once the user clicks on login button, control goes to the action (/l_security_check).

This username and pw are authenticated using form based auth. IF the login is success, it invokes the URL specified under AuthFormLoginSuccessLocation.

If login is successful, Login.php page retrieves the lsession cookie (specified under SessionCookieName) and writes the username it to the log.

If the login fails , it invokes the URL specified under AuthFormLoginRequiredLocation. In case of login failure, lsession cookie is coming as empty. Because of which we are not able to log the username.

Both Login.php and loginError.php has the following code to retrieve the lsession attribute specified under SessionCookieName

 

$_COOKIE ['lsession'];  à This is coming properly in Login.php, but it is coming empty in loginError.php. Any help on this would be appreciated.

 

Index.html :

 

<form method="POST" name="LoginForm" action="">

                <input type="text" name="j_username">

                <input type="password" name="j_password">

 

l_security_check is defined in the httpd conf file as follows

 

<Location "/l_security_check">

AuthType form

AuthName "Form-based auth"

AuthFormProvider external

AuthExternal pwauth

SetHandler form-login-handler

AuthFormUsername j_username

AuthFormPassword j_password

AuthFormLoginRequiredLocation https://10.63.70.186:443/loginError.php

AuthFormLoginSuccessLocation https://10.63.70.186:443/Login.php

AuthFormAuthoritative off

Require valid-user

Session On

SessionCookieName lsession path=/

</Location>


Thanks

Hithendra
