how to configure before Login URL for Grails Spring Security SAML Plugin

Question

I'm using Grails Spring Security SAML 3.3.1 Plugin in my application. I'm using WSO2 as my identity provider.

The setup is working fine. When grails.plugin.springsecurity.saml.active is set to true and when I launch my application's web console (ex: http://localhost:8080/WebConsole/) it redirects to the WSO2 login page.

I believe the grails saml plugin takes care of this redirection to IDP login.

Is there any way I can configure this redirection URL??? I want to redirect to my application web console and from there on clicking on SSO login it should redirect to WSO2 login.

Answer 1

Resolved it by removing SAML related filters (samlEntryPoint, samlProcessingFilter, samlLogoutFilter, samlLogoutProcessingFilter) to my application's web console default login URL. Now I can access my application's default login page when SAML is active.

By default when SAML is active we were adding these filters as part of 'grails.plugin.springsecurity.filterChain.chainMap' which was causing this redirection to the WSO2 login page.
