netbeans 8.0.1 cant find shiro.ini

Question

I added this shir.ini under web pages under WEB-INF:

[main]
# Objects and their properties are defined here, 
# Such as the securityManager, Realms and anything
# else needed to build the SecurityManager
 shiro.loginUrl  = /index.jsp 
[users]
root  = 12345,admin
guest = 12345,guest

[roles]
admin = *

[urls]
/index.xhtml = authc
/login.xhtml = authc
/info.xhtml  = anon
/logout = logout
/admin/** = authc, roles[admin]

but in glassfish server 4.1 window, I got this error:

SEVERE:   [admin-listener(5)] INFO org.apache.shiro.web.env.EnvironmentLoader - Starting Shiro environment initialization.
SEVERE:   [admin-listener(5)] ERROR org.apache.shiro.web.env.EnvironmentLoader - Shiro environment initialization failed
SEVERE:   org.apache.shiro.config.ConfigurationException: Shiro INI configuration was either not found or discovered to be empty/unconfigured.

Do you what it the cause or how to fix it?

Answer 1

Not necessarily,

IniWebEnvironment class which extends ResourceBasedWebEnvironment specifies default configuration locations to /WEB-INF/shiro.ini and classpath:shiro.ini

Answer 2

I found the cause: shiro.ini must be added under source packages not web pages
