Get request in Authenticator hook

[Ken Driscoll, modificado hace 11 años.]

I created a hook implement the Authenticator class, to perform some additional checks when the user tries to log in. Now, I need to redirect the user to a different page under certain conditions. So my question is, is there any way to get the current request parameter from the Authenticator class to set a redirect? For instance, a Util class? I would need a method, or series of methods, which don't initially require another request parameter, because the Authenticator methods aren't passed that.

Thanks in advance.

You can't redirect from Authenticator as it's not designed for that. There's only three possible responses from Authenticator: success, failure or does no exist

That's what I was afraid of. Is there any way to access the session from the authenticator class?

Well you could try PortalSessionThreadLocal.getHttpSession()

This has helped me. Thanks.

HI

How Can I Use : SessionErrors.add (request, "Exception");

I can not retrieve request in a class that inherits from Authenticator

I want to display a custom message with "liferay-ui:error"
