It is interesting.
How do you enable basic auth on the client ? In HttpConduit or directly
with JAXRSClientFactoryBean ?
I can see HttpConduit doing processRetransmit() calls every time it gets
401 (I'm not sure why yet - may be to handle different realm
combintations), however it checks if the loop can be detected or not,
and apparently, in your case, no loop can be detected for up to 41 times :-)
Can you please enable the client side logging so that we can see what is
returned from the server with every 401 ? You can add the logging
feature or LoggingInInterceptor,
Cheers, Sergey

Subject: Configure retry limit for failed authentication in REST Client
Hi CXF Users,
is it possible to configure a maximum limit of automatic retries for a CXF REST
Client?
I use JAXRSClientFactoryBean to create my service proxy. And when I test a
method with wrong credentials, I get 41 retries on my TCP Monitor. So many
false tries causes my account to be suspended...
I think it would be best, if CXF only tries once by default and throws an
exception directly if authentication fails. Automatic retries could be helpful
in
some cases but IMHO I don't think this should be default behavior.
WDYT?
Best regards
Jan
