i am using Site minder for authentication in liferay. I have created autologin hook for the same.
However, i would like to forward user to errorPage if user is present in SiteMinder but not in the liferay Portal.
I tried using following code but it is creating "server redirect loop".
public String[] login(HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response) {
String[] credentials = null;
try {
Company company = PortalUtil.getCompany(request);
long companyId = company.getCompanyId();
String siteMinderUserHeader = request.getHeader(PrefsPropsUtil
.getString(companyId, SITEMINDER_USER_HEADER,
SITEMINDER_USER_HEADER));
if (Validator.isNull(siteMinderUserHeader)) {
return credentials;
}
String authType = company.getAuthType();
User user = null;
user = UserLocalServiceUtil.getUserByScreenName(companyId,
siteMinderUserHeader);
long userId = user.getUserId();
String password = user.getPassword();
credentials = new String[THREE];
credentials[0] = Long.toString(userId);
credentials[1] = password;
credentials[2] = Boolean.TRUE.toString();
} catch (Exception e) {
String uri = (String) request
.getAttribute(WebKeys.INVOKER_FILTER_URI);
log.info("Redirecting to Error Page");
log.info("request URI = "+uri);
log.error(e.getMessage(), e);
// redirect user to a Error Page
StringBuffer redirect = new StringBuffer(
PortalUtil.getPortalURL(request)).append(
PortalUtil.getPathContext(request)).append(
PropsUtil.get(ERR_PAGE));
try {
request.setAttribute(AutoLogin.AUTO_LOGIN_REDIRECT, ERR_PAGE );
//response.sendRedirect(redirect.toString());
} catch (Exception e1) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e1.printStackTrace();
}
}
return credentials;
}
