admin failed login

Hi devs,
I was able to success fully try the 5 minute and 10 minute quick start
tutorials. But when I configure Xbaya registry, in the airavata-server
console I get this message [1] indicating a failed login. Is there any
problem here?

[1] - [WARN] User : admin Failed login attempt to system at 2013-01-30
22:11:46

Regards
Supun

Hi Supun,

This warning is actually expected when basic auth is configured. By
default we use basic auth as our authentication mechanism. The basic
auth works as follows,
First try to acquire the resource. If server side detects that no
credentials are presented return a 401 error. Then client sends
correct credentials. So the warning you see is relevant to very first
login request. You should not see this message after first logged in.
(After a session is created).

Thanks
Amila
