FF + Solaris(Basic):Authentication pop-up from Java should not be there once auth is done by browser

XMLWordPrintable

    • generic
    • solaris

      Once authentication is done by browser, implemented using Basic authentication method, we have "Authentication Required" pop-up coming again from Java with Firefox and on Solaris platform.
      Once the username and password are entered in the Java pop-up, then only the applet loads.
      This is not happening in Windows with both IE and FF. For windows, once the authentication is done by the browser, the applet loads and there is no pop-up from Java.

      Steps to reproduce:
      ------------------
      1) Load following page inside the FF browser(fresh session) on Solaris
      http://mossad.sfbay.sun.com:8080/basicAuth/tests/Test.html
      2) "Authentication Required" pop-up from browser should be there.
      Enter
      user name : jituB
      password : jitu20
      3) If "Authentication Required" pop-up from Java is there then bug is reproduced.
      Once authentication is doen by the browser, Java pop-up window is also coming for FF + Solaris for Digest Authentication.
      Once the username and password are entered in the Java pop-up, then only the applet loads.
      This is not happening in Windows with both IE and FF. For windows, once the authentication is done by the browser, the applet loads and there is no pop-up from Java.

      Steps to reproduce:
      ------------------
      1) Load following page inside the FF browser(fresh session) on Solaris

      2) "Authentication Required" pop-up from browser should be there.
      Enter
      user name : jituD
      password : jitu
      3) If "Authentication Required" pop-up from Java is there then bug is reproduced.
