      The only available workaround is modifying locally configuration file org.jboss.tools.jst.web_X.Y.Z.jar/meta/strutswebapp.meta (note: this file is packed in JAR)

      Find in it text

      <XModelAttribute PROPERTIES="save=always" default="BASIC"
      name="auth-method" xmlname="auth-method.#text">
      <Constraint loader="List">
      <value name="BASIC"/>
      <value name="DIGEST"/>
      <value name="FORM"/>
      <value name="CLIENT-CERT"/>
      </Constraint>
      <Editor name="List"/>
      </XModelAttribute>

      and change it to

      <XModelAttribute PROPERTIES="save=always" default="BASIC"
      name="auth-method" xmlname="auth-method.#text">
      <Constraint loader="ListString">
      <value name="BASIC"/>
      <value name="DIGEST"/>
      <value name="FORM"/>
      <value name="CLIENT-CERT"/>
      </Constraint>
      <Editor name="ListString"/>
      </XModelAttribute>

      that is, constraint and editor name should be "ListString" instead of "List".

    Description

      In problems view we get the following error: 'Value should be one of BASIC, DIGEST, FORM, CLIENT-CERT', because we have a custom login module.

      According to XSD 9http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd) it states the value of <auth-method> within element <login-config> must be : BASIC, DIGEST, FORM, CLIENT-CERT or a vendor specific authentication scheme.

      We are using a vendor specfiic authentication scheme, and still get this red-x error in the problems view, for the project, and in the editor.

      I have turned off all validations of the IDE (as I can tell), and I still get this error.

      How do I disable this error, since our web.xml appears to be valid with the XSD.

      If there is a known workaround, please let me know.

      <xsd:complexType name="auth-methodType">
      <xsd:annotation>
      <xsd:documentation>

      The auth-methodType is used to configure the authentication
      mechanism for the web application. As a prerequisite to
      gaining access to any web resources which are protected by
      an authorization constraint, a user must have authenticated
      using the configured mechanism. Legal values are "BASIC",
      "DIGEST", "FORM", "CLIENT-CERT", or a vendor-specific
      authentication scheme.

      Used in: login-config

          • Major - To be worked after higher priority work items are addressed. When the severity is high and the effort to change it is low to moderate, this term is chosen. Issues in this category likely have an existing workaround but implementation or execution may be non-trivial.
