Re: OBR HTTP Access through Proxy with authentication

[Stéphane Jeanjean]

Ok, so it seems that I have to use http.proxyAuth instead of 
http.proxyUser and http.proxyPassword.
So http.proxyAuth has to contain login:password

Is http.proxyAuth usual variable ?
Why not using http.proxyUser and http.proxyPassword which are standard 
variables ?

Thanks !

Stéphane

I don't think this is the same issue. FELIX-651 is about an 
authentication against the repository server. My issue is about an 
authentication against the http proxy between the OSGi platform and 
the repository server.

Ok, my bad.

When I use OBR through a proxy without authentication, it's ok. So it 
seems that http.proxyHost, http.proxyPort are takken in account. What 
is the HTTP client used in Felix OBR Implementation ? Perhaps this 
client is not using http.proxyUser, http.proxyPassword ?

OBR does this:

            // Support for http proxy authentication
            String auth = System.getProperty("http.proxyAuth");
            if ((auth != null) && (auth.length() > 0))
            {
                if ("http".equals(m_url.getProtocol()) || 
"https".equals(m_url.getProtocol()))
                {
                    String base64 = Util.base64Encode(auth);
                    conn.setRequestProperty("Proxy-Authorization", 
"Basic " + base64);
                }
            }

Is that not sufficient?

Hi,

My platform tries to access to an OBR repository through a proxy 
with authentication.
So I set the following variables :  http.proxyHost, http.proxyPort, 
http.proxySet, http.proxyUser, http.proxyPassword

It seems that the platform cannot reach my repository. When the 
network is sniffed, I see that the destination of the request is 
what is set in http.proxyHost and the port used is what is set in 
http.proxyPort. But it seems that http.proxyUser and 
http.proxyPassword are not used because there is no 
"proxy-authorization" header in the request :(

So I try to put this kind of code in my application :
           Authenticator.setDefault(
                      new Authenticator() {
                         public PasswordAuthentication 
getPasswordAuthentication() {
                            return new PasswordAuthentication(
                                    getProxyUser(), 
getProxyPassword().toCharArray());
                         }
                      }
                   );

But the behavior is the same :(

Do you know if the Felix OBR implementation is compatible with this 
type of proxy (with authentication) ?

Thanks,

Stéphane
