Hi all

I have a problem with the update process.

I have done my plug-in/feature and built up a site and published on a local
IIS server (win xp pro).

The name of the update site is: http://pcdemo/application_update

Opening the search for extension dialog, from my rcp application, I can see
the new feature present in the server...

Once I have selected them and apply for the installation it stops in the
initialization...

I can see that the page (even from explorer hangs ... it was working before)
and I found a lot error in the iis log

Just to be clear - i can download the jar from explorer correctly BUT IT
HANGS only when my rcp application is working.

FROM IIS LOG

------------------------

12:41:33 10.3.1.12 ....... GET /console/site.xml - 200
12:41:37 10.3.1.12 - GET
/console/features/com.xxx.myviewer.feature_1.0.0.jar - 401
12:41:37 10.3.1.12 - GET /console/plugins/com.xxx.myviewer_1.0.0.jar - 401

Any idea ...

I have found few sites saying that this is an authentication problem coming
from iis - but how to solve the problem?

One more question: my plug-in do not use the org.apache.xercers plug-in
....but I had to include it otherwise the update dialog was saying that the
feature to import was missing this component. Why?

Thanks all for any help

401 is authentication required. It's quite possible that your IIS server only lets authenticated connections through, which would happen automatically when you browse to it via IE, at least in an ActiveDirectory/kerberized system.

If you browse to the same page with Firefox, or using a command-line utility like wget, you'll probably find that you get the same 401 authentication required server response.
