Oracle Access Manager Operation Error: Form based authentication

Hi all,

I was trying to protect a web application using OAM form based authentication.

When I access the protected resource, I was shown the login page and upon entering the correct login details, it displays the page as shown below.

The error is :

Oracle Access Manager Operation Error

The credentials (userid=alex.nash Resource=/dummy.cgi RequesterIP=192.168.5.235 HostTarget=http://localhost Operation=POST rh=http://localhost:7777 ru=/form_example/test.jsp) used for the login are missing a required password.

Contact your website administrator to remedy this problem.

When I try the same application protected with Basic Over LDAP auth scheme, it was working fine.  Hence I looked up the Form Based auth scheme for plugin params of validate password.

It seems to be a typo of quotes for password plugin as shown below.

Correct: obCredentialPassword=”password”

Wrong: obCredentialPassword=”password”

Hence, please be careful with quotes in plugin specification.
