Mappoint MPCLient problem.

[Tonny Tssagovic]

Hello people,
I am having problems with axis authentication with the mapPoint example in Mr. Michael Yuan's book even with correct credentials.
Get the 401 error

  
AxisFault
 faultCode: {http://xml.apache.org/axis/}HTTP
 faultString: (401)Unauthorized
 faultActor: null
 faultDetail:
        null: return code:  401

I think I have read somewhere that one should change few classes in axis,
Any clue, anyone got it to work?
Please help.

Use the correct version of Axis (RC2). Axis v1.0 made some changes to the way it handles HTTP digest authentication and does not work with my examples out of the box.
cheers

Thanks for the reply Michael,
Could you please be more precise about what you mean by Axis (RC2)? I have tried with the latest stable version 1.1, which is newer then the version 1_0 rc2 as you can see in this Axis archive link , but still no success, unless I compile the SimpleHTTPSender to overcome the HTTP digest authentication problem (And I prefer not doing so). Do you mean 1.2?
Thank you in advacne!

No, you need to use the older version of Axis (RC1 or RC2 before v1.0, I think) to make the sample work correctly. Sorry for the inconvenience. I did not have time to update the sample for newer versions of Axis. But it should not be hard.

Hello Michael,

Can you be more specific about what needs to change to
upgrade from Axis RC2 to Axis 1.1 or 1.2 and using these
examples?

Thanks
