Option to bypass the package authentication in rule agent --------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBRULES-2870 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBRULES-2870 Project: Drools Issue Type: Feature Request Security Level: Public (Everyone can see) Components: drools-core Affects Versions: 5.1.1.FINAL Reporter: Jian Zhi Assignee: Mark Proctor GUVNOR-133 (Rules Agent provides access to all users' rules without authentication) added a new feature to authenticate the user in Rule agent. We would like to have this function as an optional feature. When we evaluate the rule in the application we would like to turn off the authentication, so at the runtime the user authentication is bypassed when the package is fetched through URL. In 5.1.1 release we got IO Exception when RuleAgent.ENABLE_BASIC_AUTHENTICATION is set to false. java.io.IOException: Server returned HTTP response code: 401 for URL: http://localhost:8080/drools-guvnor/org.drools.guvnor.Guvnor/package/XXX/... 14:23:04,941 ERROR [STDERR] at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.getInputStream(HttpURLConnection.java:1313) 14:23:04,941 ERROR [STDERR] at org.drools.agent.HttpClientImpl.fetchPackage(HttpClientImpl.java:77) 14:23:04,941 ERROR [STDERR] at org.drools.agent.URLScanner.readPackage(URLScanner.java:171) 14:23:04,942 ERROR [STDERR] at org.drools.agent.URLScanner.getChangeSet(URLScanner.java:143) 14:23:04,942 ERROR [STDERR] at org.drools.agent.URLScanner.loadPackageChanges(URLScanner.java:119) 14:23:04,942 ERROR [STDERR] at org.drools.agent.RuleAgent.checkForChanges(RuleAgent.java:429) 14:23:04,942 ERROR [STDERR] at org.drools.agent.RuleAgent.refreshRuleBase(RuleAgent.java:381) 14:23:04,942 ERROR [STDERR] at org.drools.agent.RuleAgent.configure(RuleAgent.java:366) 14:23:04,942 ERROR [STDERR] at org.drools.agent.RuleAgent.init(RuleAgent.java:266) 14:23:04,942 ERROR [STDERR] at org.drools.agent.RuleAgent.newRuleAgent(RuleAgent.java:206) 14:23:04,942 ERROR [STDERR] at org.drools.agent.RuleAgent.newRuleAgent(RuleAgent.java:166) -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
