Comment #3 on issue 20984 by [email protected]: Not prompted for Basic
authentication
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=20984
If we're getting the 401, then we *should* be popping up the HTTP
authentication dialog. First thing to do is figure out
if the bug is in the UI code or in the networking code. If the networking
code works properly, it will call
ResourceDispatcherHost::OnAuthRequired(). This bug sounds most likely like
a networking bug, so I'll assume that
doesn't get called. It would be interesting to see if
URLRequestHttpJob::NeedsAuth() is called, as well as
net::HttpNetworkTransaction::PopulateAuthChallenge().
So, can you run chromium in gdb to see if this happens? For information on
doing this, please check out
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Chromium/Debug.
The gdb command for setting breakpoints is `break <functionname>`. So
please execute `break
ResourceDispatcherHost::OnAuthRequired`, etc for each of the above
functions and let me know if the breakpoints are
hit. Use the `continue` command to continue running chromium after the
breakpoint is hit.
Also, if you have a windows machine, can you check to see if this happens
in windows, or if it's strictly Linux? The
networking code for HTTP authentication should be cross platform, so I'd be
surprised if this is Linux specific.
