Worklight 6.2 WorkLightAuthenticationException

we are using a custom login and custom security realm for authentication. It all works fine. But every time when we launch the app, and we logout, we could see the below exception in logs.

Kindly advice on how this can be avoided.

00001336 com.ibm.ws.webcontainer.util.ApplicationErrorUtils           E SRVE0777E: Exception thrown by application class 'com.worklight.core.auth.impl.AuthenticationContext.checkAuthentication:570'

While this is typically a benign exception, on WAS 7 it actually was causing us 500 exceptions and failures to authenticate while trying to use a custom challenge handler. To fix, we had to patch to WAS 7 FP27, and apply the setting documented above and here:

ensure that a special web container flag is on: for example: in Liberty Profile: < webContainer com.ibm.ws.webcontainer.suppressLoggingServiceRuntimeExcep="true"/>

This is very normal, worklight will throw Authentication Exception every time you try to access protected resources(like invoking procedures in adapter with security test). You can simply just ignore it.
