Jan, by the way,
WebClient.getConfig(client).getHttpCoduit().getClient().setMaxRetransmits(1);
will limit the number of retries even if for whatever reasons you get
the retransmission enabled;

It is interesting.
How do you enable basic auth on the client ? In HttpConduit or
directly with
JAXRSClientFactoryBean ?
I use setUsername(...) and setPassword(...) within
JAXRSClientFactoryBean. I do not configure HttpConduit manually in any
way.
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,
I added logging feature to my setup, but for some reasons I currently
can't figure out, I don't see any log messages on my console. But here
is a sample message copied from my tcp-monitor (they look all the same):
Status Code: 401 Unauthorized
Content-Length: 1033
Content-Type: text/html;charset=utf-8
Date: Tue, 18 Dec 2012 14:15:09 GMT
Server: Apache-Coyote/1.1
WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="Spring Security Application"
The HTTP Body contains an error message HTML encoded.
I'm not sure how to reproduce at the moment...
HttpConduit in CXF 2.7.1 will not do it by default - only if it's been
configured to do autoredirects or retransmits or chunking or if the
authentication supplier requests the stream caching...
We have a test running against Spring Security protected endpoint, it
uses HttpClient, I updated it to use WebClient locally and can't get
into HttpConduit#authorizationRetransmit after 401 gets back...
Can you please download CXF source and put few breakpoints in
HttpConduit, specifically in HttpConduit#authorizationRetransmit ?
Thanks, Sergey
Best regards.

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
