allow-empty-form-fields

Use the allow-empty-form-fields stanza entry to determine whether WebSEAL returns an error for login requests that contain an empty user name or an empty password.

Syntax

allow-empty-form-fields = {true|false}

Description

If a forms login request is received with either an empty user name or an empty password, WebSEAL returns the login form without stating an error.

If you prefer that an error message is displayed with the returned login form, set this value to true. In this case, WebSEAL attempts to authenticate the user and if the values have zero length, the registry returns the appropriate error.

Options

true
Error message is displayed with the returned login form.
false
Error message is not displayed with the returned login form.

Usage

This stanza entry is required.

Default value

false
