I am trying to configure some basic HTTP authentication over HTTPS using the spring

  • 0

I am trying to configure some basic HTTP authentication over HTTPS using the spring security manager. I have got this working previously and I have it pretty much working now with one major problem. I get the error below when my flow tries to write the message to a VM queue. My mule config works fine if I remove the the security filter (<http:basic-security-filter realm="mule-realm"/>) line but as soon as this line is present I get the error below. I’m using a custom class as the mule payload, could this be part of the problem?

Any help will be much appreciated, I have run out of ideas…

The custom payload class

package org.jembi.rhea;

import java.io.Serializable;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;
import java.util.StringTokenizer;

public class RestfulHttpRequest implements Serializable {

    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

    private String url;
    private String body;
    private String httpMethod;

    // automatically extracted when a url is set
    private Map<String, String> requestParams = new HashMap<String, String>();

    // HTTPMethods
    public static String HTTP_GET = "GET";
    public static String HTTP_POST = "POST";
    public static String HTTP_PUT = "PUT";
    public static String HTTP_DELETE = "DELETE";

    ... getters and setters for the above ...

    Ok, so I don’t have an answer of exactly why this was happening but I managed to solve the problem. All I did was move the all the jdbc stuff out to a separate flow that gets called after this one. This solved my problem and all is now running smoothly.
