As far as I know, the FULL_HEADER attribute was never correctly implemented,
and does not work. This is only on Windows/IIS with all versions of 5.5. I’m
not sure about other platforms and/or web server applications. I haven’t
fully experimented.

 

You may have to receive the incoming user with a PHP script, write the josso
header element into a text file or database field, key it, and then forward
the user into your Witango application along with the key.

Subject: Re: Witango-Talk: Help Witango Josso (accessing HTTPRequest)

 

Hi Scott,
thanks for your answer.

I'm using Witango Application Server 5.5.009 Liquorice (Win32) [Professional
Edition] and I'm developing with Witango Studio 5.5b2 on Windows OS.
I tried the @HTTPATTRIBUTE tag with NAME="FULL_HEADER" but that doesn't
return anything. @HTTPATTRIBUTE tag with known and documented names (i.e.
CLIENT_ADDRESS, USER_AGENT as an example) it works.

I found an old post in the list:
http://developer.witango.com/forum/searchforum.taf?_function=detail&id=12670
4&vnav=developer
John McGowan says he has the same problem with @HTTPATTRIBUTE tag.


Thanks in advance for your help
Francesca

Hi Francesca,

 

You may have some challanges ahead of you, depending on what version of
Witango you have.

 

The Request.ServerVariables() object in ASP/.NET has to do with retreiving
HTTP header properties of the user's request to the webserver. In your case,
your code is looking for a custom HTTP header property.

 

Unfortunately some versions of Witango have very limited access to the HTTP
request header.

 

If you have Witango 5.5 or later, then I think @HTTPATTRIBUTE is what you'll
want. But you may not be able to access HTTP_JOSSO_USER directly, so use the
NAME="FULL_HEADER" attribute on your metatag (which returns the whole
header) and then parse/search for the info you need.

 

I hope that helps.

Scott,

Hi,
I'm trying to use Josso with Witango but I don't know how to get HttpRequest
in Witango.

Josso is a Single Sign On Authentication Server. It's able to give back user
information inside the HttpRequest.

The way to get user info from HttpRequest with a JSP is:
<%=request.getRemoteUser()%>

An example with ASP is:

<html>


<body>


    <table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" >


        <tr>


         <td>


            <b>Hello, <%=Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_JOSSO_USER") %>!</b>


         </td>


         </tr>


    </table>


</body>


</html>

How can I achieve the same task with Witango?

Thanks in advance for your response

Francesca
