j_security_check

i'm using form based security in jboss with j_security_check

the problem is when i access login.jsp directly and try to login it gives an invalid page reference error 400.

how can i make it so that u can login by going to the login.jsp directly and then it sends you to a page based on the role of your entered username? if ur the admin role it sends to admin.jsp and if its in user role it sends to somethingelse.jsp

I kinda love experts that ignore pings and then come asking for points.

ramazanyich,

The question is how to go to it directly. Yes - you are giving a nice idea but unless the asker shows up, it does not really answer the question, does it? For all we know - he may have some business reason to want it like this.

rama,
From which pattern? Where do you know what he has in the prefix when he had never posted a pattern? :)

The way it is asked will not work in Tomcat. I was facing the same problem during of one of my implementations.
I want just call j_security_check from my URL, but got error 400. It works only the way I described
