Can not login CCM server with OSLC API
Hello!
I have a very strange situation when trying to pass authetification when requesting service provider catalog from CCM server (v4.0.5). When I do a request to get cookies with such parameters: Method: POST URL: https://localhost:9443/ccm/authenticated/j_security_check?j_username=jts&j_password=jts Headers: [Cookie=JSESSIONID=3F3A52CD8DCA4F7B2672D75E193B158D, Accept-Charset=UTF-8, Content-Type=application/xml] Data: I get a response with code 200: Received response 200: { "userId": "jts", "roles": [ "JazzAdmins"] } Another word I can connect to CCM server from the external application. But when I try to pass Jazz form based authentification as it's described in OSLC workshop: Method: POST URL: https://localhost:9443/ccm/oslc/workitems/catalog/j_security_check?j_username=jts&j_password=jts Headers: [Cookie=JSESSIONID=36CE341D4286A38C01A2CAC8537E67D3, Accept-Charset=UTF-8, Content-Type=application/xml] Data: I get response code 400 and a strange error: java.io.IOException: {"errorClass":"java.lang.IllegalArgumentException","errorCode":400,"errorTraceMarshall":[{"errorTraceFileName":"StringUtil.java","errorTraceClassName":"com.ibm.team.workitem.service.internal.oslc.util.StringUtil","errorTraceMethodName":"splitPair","errorTraceLineNumber":54},{"errorTraceFileName":"StringUtil.java","errorTraceClassName":"com.ibm.team.workitem.service.internal.oslc.util.StringUtil","errorTraceMethodName":"splitPair","errorTraceLineNumber":25},{"errorTraceFileName":"MediaRange.java","errorTraceClassName":"com.ibm.team.workitem.service.internal.oslc.util.MediaRange","errorTraceMethodName":"compareTo","errorTraceLineNumber":334}, ...

I try to solve the problem a lot of time but can not pass the authentification for "oslc/workitems/catalog" document. An interesting moment, when I do the same with Firefox Poster plugin - the request works perfect. I will appreciate any help regarding this issue! Please, help if somebody khows the reason of the issue! Thank you very much in advance! |

Hi Dmitry,
I'm a bit confused with what you were trying to do with the second request. The "oslc/workitems/catalog" resource is normally retrieved with a GET request, not a POST. You were not trying to create a new project area, were you? When you said it worked perfectly with Poster, what's the response? Generally speaking, after you use the first request to log on to CCM, you should get the session Id and token back. And you use such information in subsequent requests (be it GET or POST), without logging in again. Besides, I have only seen j_security_check being used in the form of serverURI+"/j_security_check", not the way in your second request. FYI, if I send a POST request to "oslc/workitems/catalog" using RESTClient in Firefox, I get an HTTP 403 error. A GET request gives me the correct result. Comments Hi Donald,
By the way, I repeated all these steps with Firefox RESTClient plugin and get it successfully as well!
I'm not sure so far but may be a way to solution is here:

The problem was solved after the next headers were used in the request:
Accept : application/xml OSLC-Core-Version : 2.0 Apparently next header was rejected by server: Content-Type=application/xml Currently I use next steps to authetificate for getting catalog document: 1. Get JSESSIONID with GET request: Method: GET URL: https://localhost:9443/ccm/authenticated/identity Headers: [] Data: 2. Login to RTC with POST request and JSESSIONID, which was found in step 1: Method: POST URL: https://localhost:9443/ccm/authenticated/j_security_check?j_password=jts&j_username=jts Headers: [Cookie=JSESSIONID=842BC788C0895C45503AF782B3554480] Data: 3. Read catalog document with GET request: Sending HTTP request to server: Method: GET URL: https://localhost:9443/ccm/oslc/workitems/catalog Headers: [OSLC-Core-Version=2.0, Accept=application/xml] Data: It must be taken into account that I need to use java.net library instead of org.apache.http (which used in OSLC workshop) to send HTTP requests. |
