Hi, I was in trouble with the same problem few time ago. Refering to this thread : https://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/jena-users/201306.mbox/browser you can see that the default behaviour cinsist in send the request without credentials, and if the distante server/proxy return an error code for authentication required, then a second request including credentials is sended.
Rob Vesse explained me that this behaviour is described in the HTTP 1.1 specification (RFC 2616 - http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2616.txt). This piece of code, present in my servor work on my computer. It challenges the HTTP client to add credentials for basic authentication. protected void doPost( HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse resp ){ [...] //no credentials, or only username or password, but not both. if( credentials == null || credentials.length != 2){ resp.addHeader("WWW-Authenticate", "BASIC realm=\"realm\""); resp.sendError(HttpServletResponse.SC_UNAUTHORIZED); } [...] Hope it will help you.
