custom SSO in jasper using tokenbase authentication

[sandeep.hari]

hi,

i'm trying to implement SSO in jasper using Token based authentication.The user is authenticated in external application and token is send via http header.

I need to read the header and get the respective user and his roles and load jasper.

 

I followed the procedure mentioned in jasper cookbook v6.0.1.but unable to configure those beans in "applicationContext-externalAuth-Preauth.xml".

i want to have my custom jars for authenticating token and redirecting him to load jasper according to his roles.

 

While tried to redirect to jasper after configuring .i'm getting (error:404 jasperserver-pro not found) in browser.Please help me in configuring and developing custom jars for Token base authenticaton

thanks in advance.

Just follow the instrucciones on http://community.jaspersoft.com/documentation/tibco-jasperreports-server-authentication-cookbook/v610/token-based-authentication

1 - Stop Tomcat

2- Copy from the install samples folder sample-applicationContext-externalAuth-preauth[-mt].xml to webapps/jasperserver[-pro]/WEB_INF/applicationContext-externalAuth-preauth.xml

3- Edit /applicationContext-externalAuth-preauth.xml and configure the token format to your needs http://community.jaspersoft.com/documentation/tibco-jasperreports-server-authentication-cookbook/v610/token-based-authentication#Configur , is always better to first try the plain text fromat that comes in the sample to see that all is OK

4- If you go by encrypting the token (You SHOULD!!) then create your decryption class http://community.jaspersoft.com/documentation/tibco-jasperreports-server-authentication-cookbook/v610/token-based-authentication#TokenDecryption
