I was also testing simple auth without success. Our ldap doesn't support
kerberos so we're stuck. Engine log doesn't report anything, and the
server log shows:
2013-02-28 09:53:52,850 INFO [org.jboss.as.server]
(DeploymentScanner-threads - 2) JBAS015870: Deploy of deployment
"engine.ear" was rolled back with failure message {"JBAS014671: Failed
services" =>
{"jboss.deployment.subunit.\"engine.ear\".\"engine-bll.jar\".component.UsersDomainsCacheManagerService.START"
=> "org.jboss.msc.service.StartException in service
jboss.deployment.subunit.\"engine.ear\".\"engine-bll.jar\".component.UsersDomainsCacheManagerService.START:
Failed to start service"}}
We're using 3.1 on CentOS, rpms from dev.centos.org repo.
