Aw: Re: Fetch API-token not working in 1.4.0

[michael böhm]

Hello Mike,

 

you were perfectly right.

 

When I add the Content-Type header, I can fetch the token via Python:

 

#################################################################

 

response = requests.post(api_url, data="" headers={"Content-Type":"application/x-www-form-urlencoded"})

 

#################################################################

 

Thanks for your quick help.

 

Michael

Hello everyone

 

I upgraded to 1.4.0 and since then I cannot fetch the API token using this example Python code:

 

######################################################

 

#!/usr/bin/python3

import sys
import json
import requests
import os

 

guac_host = "127.0.0.1"
guac_port = "8080"
guac_api_base = "http://{}:{}/guacamole/api/".format(guac_host, guac_port)
guac_username = "guacadmin"
guac_password = "***PASSWORD***"

 

os.environ['NO_PROXY'] = '127.0.0.1'

 

def get_guac_api_token(guac_username, guac_password):
    api_url = "{0}tokens".format(guac_api_base)
    text_body = "username={0}&password={1}".format(guac_username, guac_password)
    response = requests.post(api_url, data="">

 

    if not response.status_code == 200:
        print(response.status_code)
        print(response.content)
        print("Error acquiring guacamole api-token. Aborting")
        return(None)

 

    json_response = response.content.decode()
    json_response = json.loads(json_response)
    return json_response["authToken"]

 

api_token = get_guac_api_token(guac_username, guac_password)

 

if api_token is None:
    exit(1)

 

######################################################

 

Output is:

 

500
b'{"message":"Unexpected internal error","translatableMessage":{"key":"APP.TEXT_UNTRANSLATED","variables":{"MESSAGE":"Unexpected internal error"}},"statusCode":null,"expected":null,"type":"INTERNAL_ERROR"}'
Error acquiring guacamole api-token. Aborting

 

 

Has there anything changed from 1.3.0 where everything is working fine?

 

Not directly, but a number of dependencies were upgraded, including Jersey. It's possible the newer Jersey is more strict in its request handling.

 

If you can throw up a packet capture to see the actual content of the request, I would compare that against the request sent by the browser during login to see where the difference lies.

 

My guess is that you are missing a header in the Python code, presumably "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded".

 

- Mike
