Buried in the stack trace is "Failed to authenticate the principal". If you try to log into the website normally using admin/admin does it work?
What server are you using? We have test cases that work with Tomcat and WebLogic.

I installed cactus 1.4.1 and found out that it does'nt implement form authentication so I am now using the nightly build 20021022 after checking the mailing list that some gentlemen have been adding this new feature. My testcase is as follows:- public void beginBasicAuthentication(WebRequest theRequest) { theRequest.setURL("localhost:8080", "/", "/secure/idsconf", null, null); theRequest.addCookie( "test", "test" ); theRequest.setRedirectorName("ServletRedirectorSecure"); theRequest.setAuthentication(new FormAuthentication("admin", "admin")); } public void testBasicAuthentication() { assertEquals("admin", request.getUserPrincipal().getName()); assertEquals("admin", request.getRemoteUser()); assertTrue("User not in 'admin' role", request.isUserInRole("admin")); } I am getting this error when I run the test in Log4J DEBUG mode ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------- 18:00:12,899 [main] DEBUG ent.HttpClientConnectionHelper -
