Configuring the system to use application server security

You must configure the system to use application server security. However, if application server security was configured through the installer, you do not have to complete this procedure.

Before you begin

You must create the following items:

Procedure

  1. In the System Properties application, set the value of the mxe.useAppServerSecurity property to 1.
  2. For each web.xml file that sets the useAppServerSecurity value, modify the XML code:
    1. Uncomment one of the <login-config> sections for FORM or BASIC login.
    2. Set the value of <useAppServerSecurity> to 1.
    3. Uncomment the <security-constraint> section.
  3. To build the EAR file, change the directory to your install_home\deployment folder, and specify buildmaximoear.
  4. Deploy the EAR file in the appropriate application server.
  5. Synchronize the users and groups from LDAP into the system using the cron task.

What to do next

To configure to use application server security, you must configure your application server for LDAP security.
