Brian, 

 

It's not a bug.  It is a known issue.  The current implementation of
Axis2 1.5.1 uses httpCommonsClient 3 (I believe).  The oaklandSoftware
solution wrote their own transport sender using the Commons Client v4
and JCIFS which handles the NTLM v2 messages (whereas httpCommons Client
3 does NOT).

Subject: NTLM Authentication failure with CommonsHTTPTransportSender

 

Hi,

I am using Axis2 1.4.1

I am currently trying to call a SharePoint service from Axis2 using NTLM
authentication. My configuration is as follows;

<transportSender name="http"

 
class="org.apache.axis2.transport.http.CommonsHTTPTransportSender">

        <parameter name="PROTOCOL">HTTP/1.1</parameter>

        <parameter name="Transfer-Encoding">chunked</parameter>

    </transportSender>

I am invoking the service using the following;

                        HttpTransportProperties.Authenticator auth = new
HttpTransportProperties.Authenticator();

                                                                        

                        auth.setUsername(sharePointUser);

                        auth.setPassword(sharePointPwd);

                        String domain =
getSharepointConfigProperty(AUTHENTICATION_DOMAIN);

                        auth.setDomain(domain);

List<String> authL = new ArrayList<String>();

 
authL.add(org.apache.axis2.transport.http.HttpTransportProperties.Authen
ticator.NTLM);

                        auth.setAuthSchemes(authL);

 
options.setProperty(HTTPConstants.AUTHENTICATE,auth);

When I invoke the service I get the following error (seeing this in
using fiddler to see the HTTP traffic)

HTTP/1.1 401 Authorization Required

<h1>Authorization Required</h1>

<p>This server could not verify that you

are authorized to access the document

requested.  Either you supplied the wrong

credentials (e.g., bad password), or your

browser doesn't understand how to supply

the credentials required.</p>

</body></html>

When I also found is that if I switch to use
com.oaklandsw.http.axis2.OaklandHTTPTransportSender2 instead of the
CommonsHTTPTransportSender that the request will succeed.

Is this a know bug with CommonsHTTPTransportSender ? Is there a
workaround or a known fix ? I don't want to go down the route of using
the Oakland HTTP Sender as it is not an open source  project.

Any help is appreciated,

Thanks,

Brian
