How exactly did you write the authentication class? It
should not be a
plugin (implementing XWikiPlugin), but an authenticator, implementing
the XWikiAuthService interface.
I don't think that's the problem. True, the class name suggests plugin
and maybe I need to fix that. But the issue is not related to the name
of class surely? Just in case i simply paste the declaration here:
public class PortalAuthenticationPlugin extends XWikiAuthServiceImpl {
/**
* Authenticates the user
* @param context
* @return authenticated XWiki user
* @throws com.xpn.xwiki.XWikiException
*/
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
@Override
public XWikiUser checkAuth(XWikiContext context) throws
XWikiException
{
... stuff ...
}
}
To make sure its not a problem with both my plugins in the same
jarfile, I created one project per jarfile. Both compile fine, install
fine and i can see them in the deploy conduit in WEB-INF/lib. Both jar
files contain the classes. One is found by the class loader, the other
is not.

Hi Thomas,
thanks for the reply. I have two plugins in the jarfile in
question. I
double-checked the problem by setting up on scratch on a new machine.
Everything looks fine, one plugin from the same jar file is found
and
works as it should. The authentication plugin is not found:
- Initializing AuthService...
- Failed to initialize AuthService
com.kontrast.vodafone.portal.xwiki.PortalAuthenticationPlugin using
Reflection, trying default implementations using 'new'.
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:

I'm a bit confounded now. Any more ideas? Could it be some problem
with classpath ordering?
Cheers,
J.L.Simon
