[ptt-users] [TestMaker 4.4] SOAP Protocol Authentication

[Ðavîd Låndïs]

Hi,

I am trying to test a SOAP over HTTP service that uses Basic authentication.
The URL requires a username and password. (If you browse to the URL, you are
prompted with a simple authentication box.)

I have modified the "SOAP_Message_Example.py" script to work with my service
when authentication is turned off, but now how do I send the
username/password? I have tried:

............
self.protocol = ProtocolHandler.getProtocol("soap")
self.protocol.setBody(self.body)
self.protocol.setUrl("http://localhost:8080/services/DataService")
self.protocol.setUsername("user")
self.protocol.setPassword("password")
..........

but the server does not accept this (HTTP error 401). When coding a client
in Java I set the user/pass inside the SOAP stub header. So I have also
tried to mirror that:

.....
self.header = SOAPHeader()
self.header.set("javax.xml.rpc.security.auth.username", "user")
self.header.set("javax.xml.rpc.security.auth.password", "pass")
self.protocol.setHeader(self.header)
........

but then there is a client error (server never accessed):
