Umlauts used in password for BASIC authentication are not serialized correctly
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: AXIS2-3486
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-3486
Project: Axis 2.0 (Axis2)
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.3
Environment: Client: Windowx XP x64; using Eclipse 3.3.1.1
Webserver: Windows Server 2003, IIS
Reporter: Martin Landl
Priority: Minor
I use BASIC authentication to authenticate on my webserver. I use a
org.apache.axis2.transport.http.HttpTransportProperties.Authenticator to
provide the credentials for my service client.
Everything works fine, when I use a passwort containing no umlauts. But when I
use - for example - this password: "öäü", I get an 401 http error.
I investigated using wireshark and I decoded the base64 encoded authentication
http header. The result with this password was:
MyUsername: ???
instead of the expected
MyUsername: öäü
(I double-checked the header, so that I could be sure that those "?" chars were
no simple problem with my text editor).
