Error when using SimpleRealm Hi,
I want to create a custom security realm for my instance of nexus, and have been looking at your SimpleRealm example here:

https://docs.sonatype.com/display/NX/Security%20Example

And having got the code here:

http://svn.sonatype.org/nexus/trunk/nexus/nexus-test-harness/nexus-simple-memory-realm/

I’m using your war distribution (1.2.1) and put the compiled jar file for the SimpleRealm in my WEB-INF/lib folder.
I’ve added the config mentioned to my nexus.xml and security.xml to tell nexus about the realm. The problem is that when I start nexus I get the below error.
Can you please help:

this realm =    plexus.core
this strategy = org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.strategy.ForeignStrategy
Number of imports: 0
