Karl Wright reassigned CONNECTORS-1569: --------------------------------------- Assignee: Karl Wright > IBM WebSEAL authentication > -------------------------- > > Key: CONNECTORS-1569 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-1569 > Project: ManifoldCF > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Web connector > Affects Versions: ManifoldCF 2.11 > Environment: Manifold 2.11 > IBM WebSEAL > Reporter: Ferdi Klomp > Assignee: Karl Wright > Priority: Major > Labels: ManifoldCF > > Hi, > We have stumbled upon a problem with the Web Connector authentication in > relation to IBM WebSEAL. We were unable to perform a successfully > authentication against WebSEAL. After some time debugging we figured out the > web connector sends out a "Expect:100 Continue" header and this is not > supported by WebSEAL. > [https://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21626421 > ]1. Disabling the "Expect:100 Continue" functionality by putting > setExpectedContinueEnabled to false in the "ThrottledFetcher.java" eventually > solved the problem. The exact line can be found here: > > [https://github.com/apache/manifoldcf/blob/trunk/connectors/webcrawler/connector/src/main/java/org/apache/manifoldcf/crawler/connectors/webcrawler/ThrottledFetcher.java#L508] > I'm not sure if this option is required for other environment, or that it can > be disabled by default, or made configurable? > 2. Another option would be to make the timeout configurable, as the WebSEAL > docs state "The browser need to have some kind of timeout to to send the > request body before exceeding intra-connection-timeout.". By default, the web > connector request timeout exceeded the intra-connection-timeout of WebSEAL. > What is the best way to proceed and get a fixed for this in the web connector? > Kind regards, > Ferdi -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
