Custom Authenticator Problem

Hi All,

 

When I follow the document

https://developer.thingworx.com/en/resources/guides/create-authentication-extension

 

And then try to login using the TestSite.html, I get the following error in the security log.

 

 Debug Filter set to SAMEORIGIN - sending same origin

 

I suspect there is some web.xml setting that I am missing.

 

After the authentication request, I am redirected to /Thingworx/ActionLogin/CustomLogin

with 404 error.

 

 

Regards,

Manas

Hi,

 

I was performing authentication from localhost to a thingworx foundation server on localhost.

 

However, I contacted the support and the solution which they recommended is to change the URI

from "/Thingworx/ActionLogin/CustomLogin" to "/Thingworx/action-login" in two places, 

1. The authenticator extension

2. The HTML client file

 

It seems to work, but I have to test it in detail.

Are you performing this authentication from a localhost to a ThingWorx Foundation server on localhost, OR are these on two different servers/hosts?
