Hi,

I seem to be haing trouble setting up the Generic Web Repository Connector
to work with our 3rd Party Intranet over https.

I'm using this Login Request URL:
https://XXXX/Start/startpage.action?s7_username=${userId}&am p;s7_password=${password}&action=s7_security_check

With this Query Request Url: https://XXXX/Task/taskList.action

However I receive the message -
Could not fetch Resource:
https://XXXX/Task/taskList.action
Server Returned HTTPResponseCode: 403 for URL:
https://XXXX/Task/taskList.action

so it can't log in...

I made this little junit test:

public void testLoginSucceeds(){

HttpClient client = new HttpClient();

PostMethod loginMethod = new PostMethod(loginUrl);
GetMethod taskListMethod = new GetMethod(taskUrl);

loginMethod.addParameter(USERNAME_FIELD, userName);
loginMethod.addParameter(PASSWORD_FIELD, password);
loginMethod.addParameter("action", action);
try {
client.executeMethod(loginMethod);
System.out.println(loginMethod.getStatusLine());

client.executeMethod(taskListMethod);
System.out.println(taskListMethod.getStatusLine());

} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
loginMethod.releaseConnection();
taskListMethod.releaseConnection();
}

}

which generates:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
HTTP/1.1 200 OK

so httpClient seems happy. I took a copy of the plug-in from cvs and
looked through the code, but feel a bit out of my depth.

Any Help or Hints gratefully received,

Paul Hopton

I forgot to mention that the authentication process places a sesion id in
a cookie. Again this seems to be no problem within httpClient, and from
the code I scanned, should be no problem here either.

thanks
