WSF/C crash when using HTTP Basic authentication (no https)

Hello guys, I'm having hard times with WSF/C v1.3.0 libraries from client side to consume an web service set up to work on apache tomcat with basic authentication. It seems that whatever I am doing, it is not working. Google doesn't 'offer' too many solutions on my issue. So, here's a small description of my project: - I have a client-application written in C (RHEL 3.9) which will be used by various users; - All users will have valid user on the server side; - For some reason, the only way to authenticate on server side is to use HTTP (NB: no HTTPS) with Basic authentication; What I have done so far: - I could try to dig a way to setup axis2.xml file to do the authentication automatically, but this will force me to impersonate only one user at server side; - I have compiled WSF/C using this command line: ./configure --prefix=${WSFC_HOME} --enable-sandesha=no --enable-guththila=no --enable-libxml2=yes --enable-openssl=yes ++ I don't have acccess to libcurl - I have to stick with original OS version; - echo_blocking.c is not working. I have tried to use it against my web-server. It doesn't 'detect' any authentication mechanism and tries to issue a plain request; - I executed WSDL2C and created a stub using my websvc wsdl file. I have compiled the file and put it with services.xml under services directory in ${WSFC_HOME}. From log file, it seems like the code detects the new service and loads it: [Thu May 6 15:29:48 2010] [debug] svc_builder.c(318) DLL path is : /home/user/work/lib/axis/services/ManagementServiceService/libManagementServiceService.so [Thu May 6 15:29:48 2010] [debug] phase_resolver.c(123) Service name is : ManagementServiceService ++ And that's it. However, it appears that for libsubscription service (the default one), the log contains a lot more information than those 2 lines ... - Here's a sample of my code (borrowed and addapted from echo_blocking): request_string = ""; env = axutil_env_create_all("./websvc_client.log", AXIS2_LOG_LEVEL_TRACE); address = "http://jasper:8080/jasperserver-pro/services/repository"; endpoint_ref = axis2_endpoint_ref_create(env, address); options = axis2_options_create(env); axis2_options_set_to(options, env, endpoint_ref); axis2_options_set_action(options, env, ""); client_home = getenv("WSFC_HOME"); jasper_client = axis2_stub_create_ManagementServiceService(env, client_home, address); svc_client = axis2_stub_get_svc_client(jasper_client, env ); axis2_options_set_http_method(options, env, AXIS2_HTTP_POST); axis2_options_set_http_auth_info(options, env, un, pw, "Basic"); // Tried also with Digest, but no luck. axis2_svc_client_set_options(svc_client, env, options); axis2_svc_client_engage_module(svc_client, env, AXIS2_MODULE_ADDRESSING); list_item = adb_list_create(env); adb_list_set_requestXmlString(list_item, env, request_string); // the code crashes here. list_response = axis2_stub_op_ManagementServiceService_list(jasper_client, env, list_item); - axis2.xml file is not changed. It's the original file; - Here you can find the request and response made with IE: GET http://jasper:8080/jasperserver-pro/services/repository?wsdl HTTP/1.1 Accept: */* Accept-Language: en-us User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 5.1) Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate Connection: Keep-Alive Host: jasper:8080 Cookie: JSESSIONID=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Authorization: Basic XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX HTTP/1.1 200 OK Server: Apache-Coyote/1.1 Pragma: No-cache Cache-Control: no-cache Expires: Thu, 01 Jan 1970 02:00:00 EET Content-Type: text/xml;charset=utf-8 Date: Fri, 07 May 2010 09:32:57 GMT Content-Length: 8599 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> ... I have made a 3-lines test code in C# and with Basic-authentication flags it worked fine. So it has to be something with my WSFC/C code. Can you please point me what am I doing wrong here, or at least, point me to a similar sample (HTTP Basic auth with stubs)?
