Confirmed Jetspeed2 and Tomcat 5.5.15 don't play nice
So it was independently confirmed what I found, that Jetspeed 2.0 and Tomcat 5.5.15 do not play nicely together. If you try to log in with a user who has a role other than admin, you are taken to a 403-Forbidden error page in Tomcat. If you modify your URL to go back to Jetspeed, you are authenticated, but at least part of Tomcat doesn't think so.
Hopefully we'll get a Jetspeed 2.0.1 or 2.1 soon that addresses this and other issues with the installation and setup. As I mentioned in the last post, I like the architectural changes, but would prefer more stability before I work on customizations for deployment.
