Spittr Web Security in Chapiter seems to be not flexible enough to handle a jdbc Authentication
as following
protected void configure(AuthenticationManagerBuilder auth) throws Exception { auth .jdbcAuthentication() .dataSource(dataSource) .usersByUsernameQuery( "select username, password " + "from splitter where username=?") .authoritiesByUsernameQuery("select username, 'ROLE_USER' from Spitter where username=?"); }
