JmxSecurityException while initiating BroadcastingStandardMBeanWrapper

[Former Member]

Hi,

I'm trying to register an MBean so it will be manageable via Remote Administrator. A test servlet is started and call the following code:

p.setProperty("admin.path", "/Cluster/QASMBean");

p.setProperty("admin.displayName", "QASMBean");

BroadcastingStandardMBeanWrapper wrapper = null;

wrapper = new BroadcastingStandardMBeanWrapper(((QASMBean)mBean.getImplementation()), EnrichmentAdapterMBean.class, p);

mbs.registerMBean(wrapper, name);

The result is the following exception:

com.sap.engine.services.jmx.exception.JmxSecurityException: Caller Guest not authorized, only role administrators is allowed to access JMX

So, I followed the steps described at the thread

(see web.xml and web-j2ee-engine.xml)

But, still the same error, and the same user"Guest" at the error message.

Can you tell me where is the place to set the user which is registered during the servlet loading ?

Thanks !!

Hi,

Probably a silly question. Did you set values for SECURITY_PRINCIPAL and SECURITY_CREDENTIALS in the servlet while connecting to JMX (ofcourse from the same thread).

Thanks,

Yes, tried it also:

p.setProperty(InitialContext.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, "JMX_USER");

p.setProperty(InitialContext.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, "JMX_USER");

But it did not help. It still claims I'm connecting as "Guest".

Should I use port 50000 to start the servlet ?

Problem was solved when "run-as" value was specified for the test servlet.
