javax.naming.AuthenticationException
- All Implemented Interfaces:
- Serializable
public class AuthenticationException - extends NamingSecurityException
This exception is thrown when an authentication error occurs while
accessing the naming or directory service.
An authentication error can happen, for example, when the credentials
supplied by the user program is invalid or otherwise fails to
authenticate the user to the naming/directory service.
If the program wants to handle this exception in particular, it
should catch AuthenticationException explicitly before attempting to
catch NamingException. After catching AuthenticationException, the
program could reattempt the authentication by updating
the resolved context's environment properties with the appropriate
appropriate credentials.
Synchronization and serialization issues that apply to NamingException
apply directly here.
