Jakarta EE with Apache Shiro

Question

I am using Wildfly webserver, and trying to implement Apache Shiro within Jakarta EE application, unfortunately I am getting this error:

looks like the class is not found...

The following web.xml and shiro.ini (placed in WEB-INF) as follows:

web.xml:

    </filter-mapping>
</web-app>

Shiro.ini:

[main]


[urls]
/** = noSessionCreation,authcJWT[permissive]

Forgot to add the pom.xml:

...
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.shiro</groupId>
    <artifactId>shiro-web</artifactId>
    <version>1.10.0</version>
 </dependency>
...

Please help me how to address this issue!

Unfortunately, Apache Shiro is not compatible with Jarkarta namespace yet. According to Apache Shiro's [publication]: https://shiro.apache.org/blog/2022/06/30/jakarta-work.html , version 1.10.0 of Shiro was supposed to be shipped with jakarta but unfortunately as of this writing their latest version, being 1.10.1, does not come with the jakarta namespace yet.
