Apache Shiro: IllegalArgumentException on login

Question

When using Apache Shiro, the following exception appears at logon:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: configuration error. Configuration error. The specified [authc] object with the [loginUrl] property without first defining this object class. First, specify a class property, for example. myObject = full_qualified_class_name, and then define additional properties.

shiro.ini

  # ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 
  [main]
  authc.loginUrl=/login.xhtml
  authc.successUrl=/hello.xhtml
  logout.redirectUrl=/hello.xhtml

  # Users and their (optional) assigned roles
  # username = password, role1, role2, ..., roleN
  # -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  [users]
  root = secret, admin
  guest = guest, guest

  # -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # Roles with assigned permissions
  # roleName = perm1, perm2, ..., permN
   -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
 [roles]
 admin = *
 schwartz = lightsaber:*
 goodguy = winnebago:drive:eagle5

  #------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 [urls]
 /hello.xhtml= authc 

Controller

public void login() {
    Factory<SecurityManager> factory = new IniSecurityManagerFactory();
    SecurityManager securityManager = factory.getInstance();
    SecurityUtils.setSecurityManager(securityManager);
    Subject currentUser=SecurityUtils.getSubject();

    if(!currentUser.isAuthenticated()){
        UsernamePasswordToken token=new UsernamePasswordToken("root","secret");
        token.setRememberMe(true);
        try{
            currentUser.login(token);
        }catch(UnknownAccountException e){
            System.out.println("username is incorrect");
        }catch (IncorrectCredentialsException e) {
            System.out.println("password is incorrect");
        }catch (LockedAccountException e) {
            System.out.println("account was locked");
        }catch (AuthenticationException e) {
            System.out.println("there are some error");
        }
    }

Answer 1

Try to use PassThruAuthenticationFilterto attempt to log in from the controller. Add this line to shiro.ini :

authc = org.apache.shiro.web.filter.authc.PassThruAuthenticationFilter

, Shiro Security Manager web.xml, login():

Factory<SecurityManager> factory = new IniSecurityManagerFactory();
SecurityManager securityManager = factory.getInstance();
SecurityUtils.setSecurityManager(securityManager);

, FormAuthenticationFilter - , .
