Re: Weblogic 9.0b security provider

Hi,

I am having problems upgrading my 7.0 security providers.

I have set my enviroment as stated in the documents but when I issue the command:

java weblogic.Upgrade -mode silent -type securityproviders

in the directory holding the security provider jar files (or the GUI equivalent), I get the following log messages:

<feb 02, 2005 4:00:44 PM CET> <INFO > <Upgrade> <BEA-800000> <Started the Security Provider Upgrade
process, this may take a while ...>
<feb 02, 2005 4:00:44 PM CET> <INFO > <Upgrade> <BEA-800000> <Migrating old security provider jars f
rom D:\tmp\.>
<feb 02, 2005 4:00:44 PM CET> <INFO > <Upgrade> <BEA-800000> <No MDF's (.xml's) found in the old sec
urity provider jar with name pseAuthenticator.jar>
<feb 02, 2005 4:00:44 PM CET> <INFO > <Upgrade> <BEA-800000> <No Security Provider jars have been Up
graded>
<feb 02, 2005 4:00:44 PM CET> <INFO > <Upgrade> <BEA-800000> <>

I.e., the upgrade utility does not recognize the xml file in the jar. However, it's really there, at root level, with the name PseAuthenticator.xml and with the following contents:

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<!DOCTYPE MBeanType SYSTEM "commo.dtd">

<MBeanType
Name = "PostenSeAuthenticator"
DisplayName = "PostenSeAuthenticator"
Package = "se.posten.pse.framework.security.internal.authentication.weblogic"
Extends = "weblogic.management.security.authentication.Authenticator"

PersistPolicy = "OnUpdate"
Description = "The MBean that represents configuration attributes for the PseAuthentication"[color=blue]
>[/color]

<MBeanAttribute
Name = "ProviderClassName"
Type = "java.lang.String"
Writeable = "false"
Default = "&quot;se.posten.pse.framework.security.internal.authentication.weblogic.AuthenticationProviderImpl&quot;"
Description = "The name of the Java class used to load the Posten.se
Authentication provider."
/>

<MBeanAttribute
Name = "Description"
Type = "java.lang.String"
Writeable = "false"
Default = "&quot;Provider that performs authentication from the Pse DB&quot;"
Description = "A short description of the Posten.se Authentication provider."
/>

<MBeanAttribute
Name = "Version"
Type = "java.lang.String"
Writeable = "false"
Default = "&quot;1.0&quot;"
Description = "The version number of the Posten.se Authentication provider."
/>


</MBeanType>

Also, the stated class is present in the jar. What am I doing wrong?

Kind Regards
