1) Assuming boring system encodings, and something to do Base64 encoding: String creds = username+":"+password; String b64creds = Base64Util.encode(creds.getBytes()); tmc.addRequestProperty("Authorization","Basic "+b64creds);
2) Not with Basic. You might be able to rig something with Form. "Jerry Miernik" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] The question is related to undeploying a webapplication from a Java code. A connection to tomcat manager using .... URL tomcatMgr = new URL("http://localhost:8080/manager/undeploy?path=/any"); URLConnection tmc = tomcatMgr.openConnection(); .... results in: java.io.IOException:Server returned HTTP response code: 401 The questions: 1. Is there a way to deliver - programmatically - username and password for the undeploy to take effect? 2. Could the username and password be parameters in the undeploy request? Or an earlier request? 3. This Java program is trying to undeploy itself, inside a jspInit() method. Is this technically possible? (do not see why not, except for the problem with user name and password).
