Grant access to OSGi-console to other users

Posted by Feike Visser

I recently got the question how can you add other users to access the OSGi console, so that you don't need to use always the admin-account.

This is a valid question when you don't want to expose the admin-account/password to a lot of people.

Steps how to do it

Go to this configuration in the OSGi-console "Apache Sling Web Console Security Provider"

felix

In this configuration you can add users or add groups that have access to the OSGi-console.

As explained in my previous post it is better to have configuration nodes than making changes manually.

    Can you restrict users/groups to read-only (no write-access to configs)?

    Hi all,

    when I follow these instructions (approach with creating configuration node), and try to log in to Felix console with 'testhc' user, I get the following error (error.log file):
    GET /system/console/bundles HTTP/1.1] org.apache.sling.extensions.webconsolesecurityprovider.internal.SlingWebConsoleSecurityProvider authenticate: Expected user ID testhc to refer to a user

    I have created 'testhc' user by using useradmin console.

    Do you know what is wrong?
