CXF User commented on CXF-3249:
-------------------------------
Hi Chrisitian,
I used the "Authenticator" with CXF and found it works okay.
Actually in my case the webservice was deployed on Microsoft IIS server and I
"have to" use "Authenticator" - "BindingProvider" did not work for me.
It turns out that since the web service was deployed on Microsoft IIS which
needs NTLM authentication, and if we use Apache CXF library for ws-client, we
"must" need to setup the CXF client to turn off chunking. The reason is that
the NTLM authentication requires a 3 part handshake which breaks the
streaming. This was beyond my knowledge as I have very very limited knowledge
about Microsoft technologies.
Surprisingly JAX-WS RI implementation or Metro-WS stack does not demand this
kind requirement. Thus in my opinion it is indeed an overhead for CXF users.
The other error. i.e. "Unexpected close tag </HEAD>; expected </META>", was
occurring because the server was sending an error page which was lacking an end
</META> tag.
The CXF library is strict in XML parsing and instead of showing error as "401
Authentication Required", it just states about the parsing error.
AGAIN, the JAX-WS RI implementation or Metro-WS stack does properly show the
correct error message (i.e. 401 authentication required.) even if the returned
html page misses an end </META> tag.
Though I have found the solution but I would love to know more about NTLM
authentication and how the turning the chunking off resolves the authentication
failure issues with CXF stack. So if anybody can throw some light in it, will
be very happy.
Cheers,
