Similar to my previous mail I have a problem retrieving images from a
database that uses basic authentication.
Looking at the code I think the problem is again in the EBCDIC codepage
that is used on the server.
The problem is bolded:
protected void applyHttpBasicAuthentication(URLConnection connection,
String username, String password) {
String combined = username + ":" + password;
try {
ByteArrayOutputStream baout = new
ByteArrayOutputStream(combined.length() * 2);
Base64EncodeStream base64 = new Base64EncodeStream(baout);
base64.write(combined.getBytes());
base64.close();
connection.setRequestProperty("Authorization",
"Basic " + new String(baout.toByteArray()));
} catch (IOException e) {
//won't happen. We're operating in-memory.
throw new RuntimeException("Error during base64 encodation of
username/password");
}
}
This function is defined in:
src\java\org\apache\fop\apps\FOURIResolver.java
I will try with base64.write(combined.getBytes("UTF-8"));
Will keep you posted.
