CAS 4.2.5 / SPNEGO

[benoit plessis]

Hi,

I am a fairly new CAS user (the working 4.2.4 setup is two days old ;) so i prefer to check here before opening an issue.
Basically i (just) got a working CAS configuration, using SPNEGO and LDAP fallback on our MIT KRB+LDAP infrastructure.
But since 4.2.5 was out and my setup not in production i tryed upgrading le the overlay and then everything failed ;)

It started with CAS himself telling me that the service was unavailable (and not just tomcat giving me a 404), i was able to find that some part of the modified 4.2.4 login webflow wasn't working anymore, something related to "Property or field 'generateLoginTicketAction'".

So i replaced my modified login-webflow with the one from 4.2.5, and re-applied the "s/viewLoginForm/startSpnegoAuthenticate/' in the "globalTransition" tag.

Now CAS is starting ok, and the login form is showing, but the SPNEGO Auth isn't working anymore :/

I looked at the latest SPNEGO Documentation to see if there was any changes in 4.2.5

The 4.2.5 documentation still say "Replace transition instances of viewLoginForm with startSpnegoAuthenticate, if any."

https://github.com/apereo/cas/blob/v4.2.5/cas-server-documentation/installation/SPNEGO-Authentication.md

The latest doc however speak of  "initializeLoginForm" but that doesn't exist in the 4.2.5 webflow.
https://github.com/apereo/cas/blob/master/cas-server-documentation/installation/SPNEGO-Authentication.md

Does someone have an idea ?

Regards,
Benoit
