Hmmm... look into gluon/tools.py
def basic(self):
if not self.settings.allow_basic_login:
return False
basic = self.environment.request.env.http_authorization
if not basic or not basic[:6].lower() == 'basic ':
return False
(username, password) = base64.b64decode(basic[6:]).split(':')
return self.login_bare(username, password)
Can you add some print debug statements as see where it fails?
