Re: Basic / Digest authentication in website

[alexbio]

The information you posted is not sufficient, can you please tell also what you get using the code you showed?

I usually use LWP::UserAgent for GET request with authentication as follows:

use LWP::UserAgent;
use HTTP::Request::Common;

my ($url, $usr, $pwd, $endpoint, $realm) = @_;
my $ua = LWP::UserAgent -> new;
    
$ua -> credentials($endpoint, $realm, $usr, $pwd);
my $response = $ua -> request(GET $url) -> as_string;

That is similar to the second code block you posted.

Update: It could be useful if you also post the real URL of the file you are trying to get as http://sub.example.com:49282/navigation/nav_home.shtml and http://server:49282/subpage/nav_home.shtml are not real addresses.

The first block of code gives me this output, which also the code example you posted gives me:


HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized
WWW-Authenticate: Digest realm="GWAVA Console",qop="auth",nonce="d951626547bbe35 ffba6032ba46959bc",opaque="38f98a915296a94de4bbdaa09cb94726"
Client-Date: Sun, 11 Jul 2010 15:51:19 GMT
Client-Peer: 10.10.10.10:49282
Client-Response-Num: 1


The URL is this: http://mail.isnitro.com:49282/navigation/nav_home.shtml (It is only reachable on the internal network)

Then find a publicly available site where your problem occurs.
