Springboot Spring Security Ldap Login page not showing up - spring-boot

Question

I created a springboot application with spring security dependencies.
I following some tutorials and most of the say the same. I add the dependencies needed and then create a websecurityconfig file. I created these and when I run the project on my local host it works fine. I pushed my application to a remote server and I am not seeing the login page.
Here are my list of dependencies
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-security</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.ldap</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-ldap-core</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.security</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-security-ldap</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-web</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.session</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-session-core</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-configuration-processor</artifactId>
<optional>true</optional>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-test</artifactId>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.security</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-security-test</artifactId>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
And here is my websecurity config
#Configuration
#EnableWebSecurity
public class WebSecurityConfig extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter {
#Autowired
LdapConfig ldapConfig;
#Override
protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
http
.authorizeRequests()
.anyRequest().fullyAuthenticated()
.and()
.formLogin();
}
#Bean
public UserDetailsContextMapper userDetailsContextMapper() {
return new CustomUserDetailsContextMapper();
}
#Override
public void configure(AuthenticationManagerBuilder auth) throws Exception {
LdapAuthenticationProviderConfigurer<AuthenticationManagerBuilder>.ContextSourceBuilder contextSourceBuilder = auth.ldapAuthentication()
.userSearchBase(ldapConfig.getUserSearchBase())
.userSearchFilter(ldapConfig.getUserSearchFilter())
.groupSearchBase(ldapConfig.getGroupSearchBase())
.groupSearchFilter(ldapConfig.getGroupSearchFilter())
.groupRoleAttribute(ldapConfig.getGroupRoleAttribute())
.userDetailsContextMapper(userDetailsContextMapper())
.contextSource();
if (ldapConfig.getPort() != null) {
contextSourceBuilder.port(ldapConfig.getPort());
}
contextSourceBuilder
.root(ldapConfig.getRoot())
.url(ldapConfig.getUrl())
.managerDn(ldapConfig.getManagerDn())
.managerPassword(ldapConfig.getManagerPassword());
}
}
This has eaten up a lot of my time, any one Please help me...

Answer 1

Are you getting a Not Authorized when trying to get to the login page ?
Because it looks like you are requiring someone to already be authenticated to access it.
protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
http
.authorizeRequests()
.anyRequest().fullyAuthenticated()
.and()
.formLogin();
}
You'll need something similar to
protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
http
.authorizeRequests()
.antMatchers("/login").permitAll()
.anyRequest().fullyAuthenticated()
.and()
.formLogin();
}
to allow the login page to be reached.
