Basic Authentication fails with curl using restful_authentication plugin
Rails 1.2.3 Ruby 1.8.4 url 7.15.5 I have a simple app that uses the restful_authentication plugin. Authentication works great from the browser but when I try to test things via curl I get "Couldn''t authenticate you". Here is the curl command I''m using: curl -v -H ''Accept: application/xml'' -H ''Content-Type: application/ xml'' -b -u username:password -d ''<request></request>'' http://theurl.com I''ve also tried this: curl -v -H ''Accept: application/xml'' -H ''Content-Type: application/ xml'' -d ''<request></request>'' http://username:password-uj0Z+6/7SLHQT0dZR+AlfA@public.gmane.org The curl command will works fine if I don''t pass the -d switch. Thanks in advance for the help. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Re: Basic Authentication fails with curl using restful_authentication plugin
This is because RESTful Authentication is not an HTTP Authentication system.

Re: Basic Authentication fails with curl using restful_authentication plugin
line 103 of authenticated_system.rb says to me that it is..
# Called from #current_user. Now, attempt to login by basic authentication
information.
def login_from_basic_auth
username, passwd = get_auth_data
self.current_user = User.authenticate(username, passwd) if username
&&
passwd
end

Re: Basic Authentication fails with curl using restful_authentication plugin
The issue only happens in production (Linux/Apache/FCGI). It works fine in development (Win XP/Webrick). I''m still investigating and will post anything new here.

Re: Basic Authentication fails with curl using restful_authentication plugin
It looks like it is an issue with my host. The response.env is missing the HTTP_AUTHENTICATION header. I''m not really sure if this is a problem with just my host or all Apache/FastCGI set ups.
