Robert Lazarski commented on AXIS2-6023:
----------------------------------------
I haven't used basic auth in a very long time so please bear with me. Does your
server send "{_}HTTP 401 Unauthorized{_}" as described here?
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_access_authentication#Protocol]
At a glance in RequestImpl I see no reason why it wouldn't work, though the new
thing in 1.8.0 is httpclient4 is the default and no longer commons httpclient
3.x.
> Basic Auth creds missing if target auth not required

> Key: AXIS2-6023
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-6023
> Project: Axis2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.8.0
> Reporter: Rod
> Priority: Major
>
> This might be working as designed, but there's a clear change in behavior
> between Axis2 v1.7.9 and v1.8.0 which is affecting functionality dependent on
> client provided username:
> WSDL generated client provides basic auth credentials as such:
> Options opt = thestub._getServiceClient().getOptions();
> HttpTransportPropertiesImpl.Authenticator basicAuth = new
> HttpTransportPropertiesImpl.Authenticator();
> basicAuth.setUsername(user);
> basicAuth.setPassword(pass);
> basicAuth.setPreemptiveAuthentication(true);
> opt.setProperty(HTTPConstants.AUTHENTICATE, basicAuth);
> opt.setProperty(HttpTransportPropertiesImpl.Authenticator.BASIC, basicAuth);
>
> opt.setProperty(org.apache.axis2.transport.http.HTTPConstants.CHUNKED,
> Boolean.FALSE);
> thestub._getServiceClient().setOptions(opt);
> If targeting Axis2 v1.7.9, the user/pass basicAuth is received by target
> service, however, in v1.8.0 it is not.
> After looking around deep in org.apache.axis2.transport.http, it appears this
> might be occurring if the target endpoint doesn't require authentication.
> Is this by design? Is there a known way to force the transmission of
> credentials?
