Perhaps try passing the "authority" key when setting the AuthScope?
Example:
my /etc/couchdb/local.ini has:
...
[httpd]
; Uncomment next line to trigger basic-auth popup on unauthorized requests.
WWW-Authenticate = Basic realm="administrator"
...
My code in a test case looks as follows:
...
private static final String TESTDB_AUTHORITY = "administrator";
...
@Before
public void setUp() throws Exception {
// load couchdb properties
props.load(getClass().getClassLoader().getResource(DB_PROPERTIES).openStream());
...
dbname =props.getProperty("couchdb.db.dbname",TESTDB_NAME);
user =props.getProperty("couchdb.db.user");
pass =props.getProperty("couchdb.db.password");
authority =props.getProperty("couchdb.db.authority",TESTDB_AUTHORITY);
...
}
then later, I create dbs as follows...note the authority in AuthScope new call
public static Database createDatabaseForTest()
{
// Load couchdb properties
Server server = new ServerImpl(host,port);
if(user != null && pass !=null) {
AuthScope as = new AuthScope(host, port, authority);
Credentials c = new UsernamePasswordCredentials(user, pass);
server.setCredentials(as,c);
}
List<String> databases = server.listDatabases();
log.debug("databases = " + databases);
...
}
Hope that helps,
James
