[jira] Commented: (SLING-1134) GET for http://localhost:8080/ results in HTTP ERROR 200

["Peter Chiochetti (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-1134?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12762175#action_12762175 ] 

Peter Chiochetti commented on SLING-1134:
-----------------------------------------

A wish: please make sling behave in that case like specified in this document: http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html#sec10.4 - i.e. send a 401 Unauthorized.

As browsers cache the credentials, a result code of 200 will not trigger a new authentication, which is especially useful, if eg. a user mistyped name or password - she then should get a chance to correct the error. Doing XHR requests instead is a little fragile too.

> A GET for http://localhost:8080/ results in HTTP ERROR 200
> Steps to reproduce this:
> 1) svn checkout http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/sling/trunk Sling
> 2) mvn -s /dev/null install                 (I had to apply the attached sling.diff for this to be successful)
> 3) cd launchpad/app/
> 4) java -jar target/org.apache.sling.launchpad.app-6-SNAPSHOT.jar -c sling
> 5) http://localhost:8080/system/console
> 6) set "Allow Anonymous Access" to false (org.apache.sling.engine.impl.auth.SlingAuthenticator) 
> 7) go to http://localhost:8080/
> Result:
> - The log says: org.apache.sling.engine.impl.auth.SlingAuthenticator getAnonymousSession: Anonymous access not allowed by configuration - redirecting to login
> - Firefox: HTTP ERROR 200 , Problem accessing /. Reason: OK
> There is also quite a lot of noise in the error.log:
> *WARN* [SCR Component Actor] org.apache.sling.jcr.jackrabbit.server.impl.security.PluggableDefaultAccessManager No pluggable AccessManager available, falling back to DefaultAccessManager
