APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
User request is authenticated successfully, but subsequently fails authorization to the web resource. This is a BASIC AUTH request. The webcontainer then forwards to an error.jsp. The error.jsp picks up the authenticated subject and gets an httpsession. Session security is enabled, resulting in the authenticated ID being placed on the session. AppServer fails to return the LTPA token for the authenticated user. A subsequent request is run with the UNAUTHENTICATED ID, since it has no LTPA token. The web resource is unprotected and tries to access the session previously created for the authenticated user. This fails. Example error exception: SESN0008E: A user authenticated as {0} has attempted to access a session owned by {1}.(anonymous,user:defaultWIMFileBasedRealm/uid=was,o=defaultWI MFileBasedRealm)
