Spring Servlet and Spring security filter chain Url Patterns

1.2k views Asked by At

I'm having a lot of trouble debbuging those 404 messages on spring security's j_spring_security_check and j_spring_security_logout. I believe that there might be some conflict between SpringServlet Url-Pattern, springSecurityFilterChain Url-Pattern and/Or sitemesh.

This is my web.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app xmlns="http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_3_1.xsd"
    version="3.1">

    <filter>
        <filter-name>springSecurityFilterChain</filter-name>
        <filter-class>org.springframework.web.filter.DelegatingFilterProxy</filter-class>
    </filter>

    <filter-mapping>
        <filter-name>springSecurityFilterChain</filter-name>
        <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
    </filter-mapping>

    <context-param>
        <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>

    </context-param>

    <servlet>
        <servlet-name>springServlet</servlet-name>
        <servlet-class>org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet</servlet-class>

        <init-param>

        </init-param>
        <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
    </servlet>

    <servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>springServlet</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>

    <listener>
        <listener-class>org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener</listener-class>
    </listener>

    <filter>
        <filter-name>sitemesh</filter-name>
        <filter-class>org.sitemesh.config.ConfigurableSiteMeshFilter</filter-class>
    </filter>

    <filter-mapping>
        <filter-name>sitemesh</filter-name>
        <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
    </filter-mapping>

</web-app>

And my ApplicationContext (including the spring-security parts):

        <property name="defaultLocale" value="pt">
        </property>
    </bean>
</beans>

And a basic homepage Controller, which returns a view with sitemesh:

@Controller
@RequestMapping(value = "/")
public class HomeController {

    @RequestMapping(method=RequestMethod.GET)
    public String index()
    {
        return "home/index";
    }
}

This works for login. If I access localhost/portal I will be redirected to spring's default login page which will then redirect me to "/". Problem is this URL here:

<a href="<c:url value="/logout" />">Logout</a>

which generates a 404 and this error:

17:06:43,657 WARN [org.springframework.web.servlet.PageNotFound] (default task-27) No mapping found for HTTP request with URI [/Portal/logout] in DispatcherServlet with name 'springServlet'

This is the same either I change the logout-url or not.

I'm suspecting some incompatibility between the filters and spring servlet but I'm at loss.

can you help?

I'm using spring-security 4.0.1

Thank you!

I just needed to use a form to perform the logout. Something like this:

<c:url var="logoutUrl" value="/logout"/>
<form action="${logoutUrl}" method="post">
  <input type="submit" value="Log out" />
  <input type="hidden" name="${_csrf.parameterName}" value="${_csrf.token}"/>
</form>

This is because spring-security's CSRF is enabled by default and the logout must be performed through POST with the CSRF token.

change logout. something like this.

<a href='<c:url value="/j_spring_security_logout" />'>
