Error Configuring LDAP security for Spring 3.1.0

[Balaji Partasarathy]

Hi,

I had been trying to add security to my spring mvc 3 application.

Here is my Spring-security.xml

<beans:beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/security"
xmlns:beans="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans-3.0.xsd
http://www.springframework.org/schema/security
http://www.springframework.org/schema/security/spring-security-3.1.xsd">



<http auto-config="true">
<intercept-url pattern="/index.jsp" access="ROLE_USER" />
</http><authentication-manager>

<ldap-authentication-provider user-dn-pattern="CN={0},OU=Users,OU=****,OU=****,DC=***,DC=***,DC=com"/>

</authentication-manager>

<ldap-server url="ldap://abc.abcd.com:389" manager-dn="cn=****,ou=****,ou=***,dc=***,dc=***,dc=com"
manager-password="****" />

</beans>


But I am getting the below exception when I start my server. I have ensured that I m using the right versions of jars. all belong to 3.1.0.RELEASE.jar. Can you please help me to resolve the below error?

[Bill Gorder]

Ill be honest I did not really look at your configuration the reason being is your stack trace is showing a 'NoSuchMethodError'

Typically the root cause of this is you have compiled a class against a different version of the library that is missing the method in question than the one used when you are running the application.

You say that you have checked the versions but I would double check that. spring-ldap which is the library with the problem is at version 1.3.1 is this the version you have in your POM file?

If it is I see you are using Websphere (yuck). If Websphere is pulling in different version of this library that could be an issue as well. To work around this change your classloading options to PARENT LAST in your websphere configuration.

Good luck

[Balaji Partasarathy]

Yes. I am running on websphere. But by choosing parent last I was able to overcome that error but I m getting another error. I am not able to find the jar which should have this class.

I have the below jars in my lib
spring-security-config-3.1.0.RELEASE.jar
spring-security-core-3.1.0.RELEASE.jar
spring-security-ldap-3.1.0.RELEASE.jar
spring-security-web-3.1.0.RELEASE.jar

Did you read my last reply?

but I would double check that. spring-ldap which is the library with the problem is at version 1.3.1 is this the version you have in your POM file?

You need to have spring-ldap in your dependencies as is clearly indicated in the stack trace here:

: Couldn't locate: org.springframework.ldap.core.support.BaseLdapPathContextSource. If you are using LDAP with Spring Security, please ensure that you include the spring-ldap jar file in your application;

<dependency>
	<groupId>org.springframework.ldap</groupId>
	<artifactId>spring-ldap</artifactId>
	<version>1.3.1.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>

Thanks Bill.
Yes. I needed more jars than what was mentioned. The below link mentions all the jars required for the LDAP setup. After I copied all of them I was able to get it working.
