I have just installed Jazz 1.0M6a and am not able to log on to jazz/admin. When you click on the login link it just refreshes the page and posts the following in the App Servers SystemOut.log

I have tried the following;
1. Completely deleting the WsAS 6.1 profile, dropping and recreating the Jazz tables. Once the jazz.war was installed and started I attempted to use the/jazz/setup link to complete the configuration and that just results in the GUEST user does not have authority and the jazz/admin login results in the same issues as indicated above.
2. I then attempted to configure bluepages authorization. This results in the same issues.
3. I can sign on from the Jazz client with ADMIN/ADMIN and configure the server and add users however I Am unable to authenticate with new users. I can connect to the project with ADMIN/ADMIN. The user has been added to JazzAdmins in the WsAS console.
The only way I was able to get this to work was to set the following parameters in the teamserver.properties
# indicates whether to allow guest access or not. If false, users must login through a secure
# https channel and also must exist as contributors in the repository.
com.ibm.team.repository.ws.allow.guest.access = true
# indicates whether to allow admin access or not.
com.ibm.team.repository.ws.allow.admin.access = true
# performs real authentication and forwards requests with the special header.
com.ibm.team.repository.ws.allow.identity.assertion = true
4. I have went through all of the defects and forums and have added the following to the teamserver.properties

I do not understand about the Jazz requirements for the LDAP groups since WebSphere provides a mechanism to map users to the Jazz roles it a bit redundant and unnecessary to have and maintain Jazz groups within the LDAP server.
If this is carry over from TomCat then I would suggest a separate war file that can be set up on WebSphere to utilize WebSpheres mapping of users to roles fro mthe root of the ldap server. This would make system administration much simpler and the configuration with WebSphere a lot easier.
I am still seeing issues with not being able to access 9443/jazz/setup and 9443/jazz/admin does not prompt for the signon when the login link is clicked.
