Spring required a bean of type 'AuthenticationManager'

Question

I have been trying to follow a tutorial found HERE for setting up a demo to help me understand SSO on my local machine before implementing in another project. I have run into a problem that has left me stuck. I receive and error telling me to add a bean. Please let me know what code I am missing. I cannot get the program to run.

Description:

Field authenticationManager in com.spud.auth.AuthApplication$OAuth2Config required a bean of type 'org.springframework.security.authentication.AuthenticationManager' that could not be found.


Action:

Consider defining a bean of type 'org.springframework.security.authentication.AuthenticationManager' in your configuration.

Answer 1

You have to expose the AuthenticationManager as spring bean described here.
