| Summary | 0002607: HTTP Basic authentication keeps re-prompting | ||||||||
| Description | HTTP Basic authentication keeps re-prompting for username/password. I think it is asking for every protected element on the page rather than retrying the previously input details automatically. | ||||||||
| Steps To Reproduce | was testing with a protected forum, however that site is not going to be protected for much longer and I can't give out the details, so, hmm... | ||||||||
| Additional Information | Log attached. This log involves me typing in the correct user/pass once and then cancelling all subsequent requests. | ||||||||
| Tags | No tags attached. | ||||||||
| Fixed in CI build # | 4403 | ||||||||
| Reported in CI build # | 4385 | ||||||||

Initial review of the log suggests this may be a https with basic auth issue we probably need to set up a test server and verify this |

I set up https://ci.netsurf-browser.org/secure/ user:passwords are: netsurf:netsurf blank: but netsurf works fine with the gtk frontend. Can you try with your frontend please? |

Unrelated: I saw a pile of fetch_curl_poll logging in the log, which shouldn't have been enabled, so I've turned that off. Probably unrelated: I see lots of lines like: content/handlers/html/html.c:695 dom_default_action_DOMNodeInserted_cb: javascript context: 0x0 (htmlc: 0x5695b330) And I have no idea how that can happen. Chris: Does the build include the duktape stuff (build time option)? Are you running with the runtime choices option for JavaScript enabled or disabled? |

Chris, please try with my latest commit that adds some logging for 401 windows. |

The same happens on Chrome/Windows 10 so it must be site issue. |

1. ci.netsurf-browser.org secure site doesn't even prompt for a user/pass (ns_cisecure.log) (it doesn't prompt on Firefox either) 2. Duktape is included and enabled at runtime 3. New log with CI 4393 - ns_aorg.log (same thing, typed user/pass once, cancelled the many other requests) For some reason Mantis doesn't appear to be sending me updates, so give me a prod if I don't respond. |

One possibility was that the Amiga front end was passing a garbage realm to urldb_set_auth_details. I've fixed that on master. Also, I've made tlsa/401 branch, which moves responsibility for dealing with urldb to the core. I'd be grateful to anyone who can test it. |

We can use httpbin for testing basic auth with username and password. I've opened an issue about testing when username and password aren't both present. https://github.com/requests/httpbin/issues/502 |
