Re: [xwiki-devs] custom authentication firing twice

I am writing a custom authentication class following notes from http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Authentication and the sample given in http://bodez.wordpress.com/2008/10/15/xwiki-user-authentication-with-oracle… The class is written and I can see the Remote Authentication is called and returns just fine and my method returns a new XWikiUser however, in my logs I see the checkAuth being fired twice, once with the j_username = entered username... but the second time it is fired set to null. Here is my checkAuth method: public XWikiUser checkAuth(XWikiContext context) throws XWikiException { log.debug("ARFSSOAuthServiceImpl.checkAuth"); String user = getRemoteUser(context); if (user==null || user.equals("")){ log.error("SSOAuthServiceImpl: User cannot be authenticated (REMOTE_USER is null)"); // TODO: redirect login. return null; }else{ log.warn("ARFSSOAuthServiceImpl: User " + user + " has been authenticated"); this.createUser(user, context); user = "XWiki." + user; } log.warn("SSOAuthServiceImpl: authentication successful context.setUser " + user); context.setUser(user); return new XWikiUser(user); } Here is the log from a single post of the credentials: 2012-08-25 11:11:30,285 [ http://zzzzzzz/xwiki/bin/loginsubmit/XWiki/XWikiLogin] WARN sso.ARFSSOAuthServiceImpl -
