Description Michal Tkacz CLA 2006-12-01 06:50:14 EST 
Please add support for HTTP authentication to Jira connector, the same that has already been added to Bugzilla connector. Currently there's no way to provide the credentials when creating a repository and validating settings leads to 401 error (authorization required).

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 159313 ***
Comment 2 Michal Tkacz CLA 2006-12-07 06:29:08 EST 
Sorry to ask but is HTTP authentication really the same problem as HTTP Proxy authentication? There's no proxy in my case just a basic http authentication set on the web server. Now that bug 159313 is fixed, does it really fix this case as well?
Comment 3 Mik Kersten CLA 2006-12-07 11:30:35 EST 
My mistake, thanks for pointing that out.

Eugene: we currently have no support for http authentication for the JIRA connector, right?  I assume that just means that the dialogs pop up given how JIRA Core Services connects?
Comment 4 Michal Tkacz CLA 2006-12-07 11:50:24 EST 
Unfortunately all that pops up in my case is a "401 error" dialog as I already described above.

No, there is no support for http auth. I believe it will require some changes in jira core services.

Any updates on this? I was excited to try out Mylar today and it's not going to work for me until this is addressed :-(
Comment 7 Steffen Pingel CLA 2007-02-19 18:12:08 EST 
I'll look into getting this ready for the next milestone release.
Comment 8 Mik Kersten CLA 2007-02-19 18:42:35 EST 
Excellent.  My sense is that this limitation is holding up quite a few people.
Comment 9 Steffen Pingel CLA 2007-02-19 19:27:23 EST 
I have committed support for setting HTTP authentication and proxy settings for JIRA repositories. This currently not used when validating repositories (waiting on bug 172085 for that).

Wow Steffen, you are on fire :)

Fyi, I'm about to cut a 3.3 dev build that will have all your changes in it.  Do you want to close this bug?
Comment 12 Steffen Pingel CLA 2007-02-19 20:40:25 EST 
I'll wait for Rob to close bug 172085 and then fix the Validator (it's just a matter of passing a few additional parameters).
Comment 13 Steffen Pingel CLA 2007-02-19 22:00:58 EST 
Committed final touches for Validator. 

Mik, please let me know when the dev build becomes available. We need to do some testing of all the recent changes...
Comment 14 Mik Kersten CLA 2007-02-20 12:47:04 EST 
2.0.0.v20070219-2000 should be available in 20 min.  Note that the update site is now ../dev/e3.3.  I'll send a message about that shortly.
