> Key: AXIS2C-716
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2C-716
> Project: Axis2-C
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: core/transport
> Affects Versions: 1.1.0
> Environment: This should be a platform independent change.
> Reporter: Michael Mole
> Assignee: Dumindu Pallewela
> Fix For: Current (Nightly)
>
>
> Currently when using basic http authentication, the Authorization header is
> not sent with the initial request. Instead, Axis2/C waits for the server to
> first send a failed authentication response with a WWW-Authenticate header.
> Then Axis2/C will resend the request with the required Authorization header.
> If the user specifies the Authorization information up front, then the
> Authorization header should be sent with the initial request.
> It adds unnecessary overhead to require 2 requests to be sent every time.
> Also in my case, my server is not sending the WWW-Authenticate, so I am
> unable to authenticate at this point. (Although this piece is probably a bug
> with my server.)
