Change in identity manager between 2.5 and 2.6

[JeffPace]

My identity manager works at 2.5.  I don't have any custom code in it at the moment, it just hits the first secure service and prompts for login (AWESOME THANK YOU)

when I change my application to 2.6, firebug throws and error saying

tokenserviceurl not defined

and hangs login.

What changed?

registerServers takes an array of ServerInfo objects so you'd just need to create a ServerInfo object for each server and add it to the array you provide to registerServers. See the IdentityManagerBase help topic for details:

Hmmm, i dont know if that is going to work for us.

We use the recommended config of placing all our servers behind a Web App Firewall/reverse proxy.  But we use 1 proxy, and have many servers.

so

www.mymanatee.org/arcgis/rest/services/utilities/ goes to server 1
but
www.mymanatee.org/arcgis/rest/services/sheriff/ goes to server 2

using the registerServers class, they would both have the same serverInfo.server, but with different token services.

How would the application know which token server to use for which service ?

Let's try this:

var serverInfo = new esri.ServerInfo();
serverInfo.server = 'https://www.mymanatee.org';
serverInfo.tokenServiceUrl = 'https://www.mymanatee.org/arcgis/tokens/generateToken';          
esri.id.registerServers([serverInfo]);

Can you let us know if that works?

Let's try this:

var serverInfo = new esri.ServerInfo(); serverInfo.server = 'https://www.mymanatee.org'; serverInfo.tokenServiceUrl = 'https://www.mymanatee.org/arcgis/tokens/generateToken';           esri.id.registerServers([serverInfo]);

Can you let us know if that works?

esri.ServerInfo is not a constructor
[Break On This Error] var serverInfo = new esri.ServerInfo();

esri.ServerInfo is not a constructor
[Break On This Error] var serverInfo = new esri.ServerInfo();

Where are you running that code? It should be inside a function called by dojo.ready.

well, not in dojo.ready , but you were correct.  I had it in the wrong spot (my dojo-fu was weak)

This has fixed me, thank you.

Nice! Glad we finally got that sorted.

unfortunately no, i was hitting a cached copy at 2.5.  Still cant seem to get this to work, still getting an undefined tokenservice url

My guess is I am not putting that code in the right place, just need to keep trying.

Try inserting the code posted previously inside a function that runs after the page loads but before you create your map services that require tokens.

[JeffPace]

well rats.  I totally forgot about this issue, deployed today updating to 2.7 and broke my site.  Switching the api back to 2.5 fixes everything, so it is definately the above issue.

I just can't figure out where to set the serverinfo.  If i set it too early (when loading layers) i get a esri.id not defined or serverInfo is not a constructor.
If i set it too late, i get tokenservice not defined.

And I can't seem to find the sweet spot.

Are you running the code posted previously at the top of your function that dojo.ready calls?
