Hi all,
I'm just writing some custom auth handlers for a CouchDB cluster we are setting
up. To do what we need to do, in the security context we require, I need to run
two such custom handlers. I believe that I should be able to do this with the
following syntax:
[httpd]
authentication_handlers = {couch_cms_auth,
cms_backend_authentication_handler},{couch_cms_auth,
cms_host_authentication_hander}
Now, each of these handlers on their own work just fine, but I have problems
when attempting to use both. My understanding is that if one throws an
unauthorized exception, then the next handler in the list should be tried.
However, I see a throw in the first handler kill the request there and then
with a 401, without trying the second handler.
Have I misunderstood this behaviour, or do I need to modify how I write my
custom handlers so they behave with each other?
Best regards,
James Jackson.
