I am attempting to setup container managed security with GlassFish v3.1.1 Build 12 and JSF 2.1. I keep getting the following exception for some reason and I am unable to login.

GlassFish Admin Console Realm setup:

Realm Name: PerProUserAuth
Class Name: com.sun.enterprise.security.auth.realm.jdbc.JDBCRealm
JAAS Context: jdbcRealm
JNDI: MyDS
User Table: User
User Name Column: mem_id
Password Column: password
Group Table: User
Group Name Column: mem_status
Digest Algorithm: SHA-256
Encoding: Base64

And finally, my USER table has a mem_id of "admin" and a password that is SHA-256 base 64 encoded as (plaintext:admin): JIkcSMs4aijfwzpVjZ0MbzgWmoieGm7fxF0pTmH+cUI=

Just a guess: I'd try with jGl25bVBBBW96Qi9Te4V37Fnqchz/Eu4qB9vKrRIqRg= as a hash for password admin.

final MessageDigest messageDigest = java.security.MessageDigest.
        getInstance("SHA-256");
final byte bin[] = messageDigest.digest(("admin").getBytes());
System.out.println(Base64.encodeBase64String(bin));

(Base64 from Apache Commons Codec)

Another idea: Try with hash 8c6976e5b5410415bde908bd4dee15dfb167a9c873fc4bb8a81f6f2ab448a918 (password: admin) and HEX encoding. It was generated with:

final String hash = DigestUtils.sha256Hex("admin");
System.out.println(hash);
