Issue in 401 Authentication

umesh

Hi,

I am new to Sahi and would like to Congratulate the team for this wonderful tool

Problem statement: -
In my current requirement i am trying to access a webpage which has got 401 authentication. During this process Sahi generates a webpage containing the userid and password field, but on entry of data the page simply refreshes instead of logging in

Other information: -

A little analysis of the server trace showed that the basic realm was treated differently when sending the password, the realm had " before and after the realm name, but while sending the password this is being ignored. I have attached the server trace for your reference.

Server trace: -

Hi Umesh,

We have tried to fix this issue and emailed you a link to a new build of Sahi. Could you please verify and let us know if it works?

Hi Narayan,

Thanks for the super quick reply!!!

Tried this in the latest build and the issue persists , The server trace is attached below, i think the double quotes are still causing some issue.

Apart from this an error is reported in the IE status bar, on opening the error the message "Object doesn't support this property or method" is observed (Not sure if this is of any significance)

Hi Umesh,

The double quotes are causing some problem.

Here are two things you can try:

1) Open sahi/htdocs/spr/401.htm
2) Search for a setCredentials function
3) Replace

Sahi.prototype.setCredentials = function(){
    var authUser = document.authForm.authUser.value;
    var authPassword = document.authForm.authPassword.value;

    this.sendToServer("/_s_/dyn/SessionState_setCredentials?"+
            "authUser=" + encodeURIComponent(authUser) +
            "&authPassword=" + encodeURIComponent(authPassword) +
            "&authRealm=" + encodeURIComponent("$authKey"));
    location.reload();
}

with

Sahi.prototype.setCredentials = function(){
    var authUser = document.authForm.authUser.value;
    var authPassword = document.authForm.authPassword.value;

    this.sendToServer("/_s_/dyn/SessionState_setCredentials?"+
            "authUser=" + encodeURIComponent(authUser) +
            "&authPassword=" + encodeURIComponent(authPassword) +
            "&authRealm=" + encodeURIComponent('$authKey')); // Single quote around $authKey
    location.reload();
}

4) Restart Sahi, clear browser cache and check again.

5) If that does not work, in step 3, replace line

"&authRealm=" + encodeURIComponent('$authKey')); // Single quote around $authKey

with

"&authRealm=''"; // set to blank. That is what seems to given by Java as the realm to match against.

Restart Sahi, clear browser cache and check again.


I think setting to blank as stated in step 5 should work for you.

Narayan
