Jackrabitt: set Username and Password

Question

I am new using JackRabbit. I have one problem, I need add the username and password to access to the repository. At the moment, I can access whit every password and user but, for my need, it is not secure.

I have found jackrabbit-repo.xml file. but I don't know where I have to add these params. (in security>LoginModule or Filesystem or anywhere). please guide me by sample code if it is possible for you.

Update:

In jackrabbit-repository.xml has used simpleAccessManager and there was not any credentials for login. So I have changed it to DefaultSecurityManager and also add “adminId” param in LoginModule due to tell to Repository only adminUsers can login.

<SecurityManager class="org.apache.jackrabbit.core.DefaultSecurityManager" 
            workspaceName="security" />
<AccessManager class="org.apache.jackrabbit.core.security.DefaultAccessManager"/>
<LoginModule class="org.apache.jackrabbit.core.security.authentication.DefaultLoginModule">
    <param name="adminId" value="admin"/>
</LoginModule>

Now, it works well unless anonymous user wants to login, in this case display error. and it is fine. But I have faced to a new error. when in application tries to access files in repository, it will faced a below error.

java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: org.springframework.dao.DataAccessResourceFailureException: Could not open Jcr Session; nested exception is javax.jcr.LoginException: LoginModule ignored Credentials

Note: PersistenManager dataType is derby. Because repository is not database.

Thanks

The mentioned error means if the user exists in the 3rd party system but the credentials don’t match it throws LoginException.

java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: org.springframework.dao.DataAccessResourceFailureException: Could not open Jcr Session; nested exception is javax.jcr.LoginException: LoginModule ignored Credentials

JAAS Authentication and Login Modules

Don't need to change something in PersistenManager or something else in workspace.
