I'm trying to use the slide client API (TC 3.2.1 ,slide M8)
I've got the following errors while querying the server :
1)
WARNING - Access denied on /users by user /users/guest for action /actions/read
20 Mar 2001 17:08:21 - WARNING - Access denied on /actions by user /users/guest for
action
/actions/read
The propfind request returns a 500 status error, an exception is thrown while putting
documents :
org.apache.webdav.lib.WebdavException: Unable to process request
2) ok the authentication directives in the file web.xml were commented out.Why not.
I restart the server with the following directives :
tomcat-users.xml :
<user name="john" password="john" roles="tomcat,role1,root" />
Domain.xml : unchanged
3) The result is the same. Adding authentication directives has just allow to display
a pop
up when accessing /slide on my server (john,john works fine) and display the Directory
Listing / with full slide informations
4) I noticed a difference between this two tries :
In the second case, the server doesn't log anything in the debug interface. Why ??
I'm not sure to understand exactly how slide manage users. Perhaps I could have also a
configuration problem.
5 ) So to resume :
- I place the slide.war in the webapps repository
- I configure servers.xml and mod_jk.conf to allow servlets execution in slide
repository
- I add authentication directives in the web.xml file (3)
- I start my server , full information are displayed and the slide repository has been
created.
- I access /slide via my web browser , and I authenticate myself with john,john
- Ok it's work (Clicking on actions does not work !)
- Now I try to do the same with the client API :
WebdavClient client = new WebdavClient();
client.startSession("localhost", 8080);
client.setCredentials("john","john");
and then : getMethod, putMethod , propfind as describe in examples ...
Why it doesn't work ?
Thanks in advance for any help.
