Question

I want to use apache shiro to secure my JSF application that I have made in netbeans. After adding shiro-core and shiro-web jar files to library and configuring web.xml and shiro.ini as follows I get an Error when deploying my application. I suppose it does not find the classes but I don’t know what is missing.

web.xml

<listener>
    <listener-class>org.apache.shiro.web.env.EnvironmentLoaderListener</listener-class>
</listener>

<filter>
    <filter-name>ShiroFilter</filter-name>
    <filter-class>org.apache.shiro.web.servlet.ShiroFilter</filter-class>
</filter>

<filter-mapping>
    <filter-name>ShiroFilter</filter-name>
    <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
    <dispatcher>REQUEST</dispatcher> 
    <dispatcher>FORWARD</dispatcher> 
    <dispatcher>INCLUDE</dispatcher> 
    <dispatcher>ERROR</dispatcher>
</filter-mapping>

shiro.ini

[users]
admin = password

[urls]

/admin/** = authBasic

Thanks in advance for any help.

Answer 1

Found the cause:
Shiro jars require slf4j jars (logging library).

I added slf4j-api-1.7.2.jar and slf4j-simple-1.7.2.jar to my (NetBeans) project library and it worked.
