Login from webclient from another server

Question

Hello,

we have a webclient (angular using @eo-sdk/core).
If this webclient is packaged as an mobile app (via cordova), form-based login works.
If this webclient is hosted in the service-manager`s "webresource\public\"-folder next to the standard-"client", login is performed automatically (NTLM)
If this webclient ist hosted on any other webserver, form-based login always returns 401 unauthorized.
CORS is enabled for * (any domain) in yuuvis.

Is there something that has to be configured to allow login from (pages hosted on) other servers?

Best,
Stefan

Hi Stefan,

maybe you also have to set the samesite cookie in the gateway settings?

Hello Nicolai,

thanks for your answer.
I don`t think samesite is the reason here, as we are in the same domain (our intranet) and there is no warning in the devTools of Firefox or Chrome. The http-'GET' on /login is issued and immediately we get '401' as anwer.

Hi Stefan,

usually the Gateway shows this behaviour if you are mixing authentication modes - so for example trying to pass basic auth credentials to a SSO gateway - or if you call an invalid URL. The client uses relative URLs to connect to the services. Make sure your site on the webserver has the same context-path (/app/client/) and/or adjust the base-path parameter in the index.html file.

Answer 2

Hi Nicolai,

it doesn`t seem to be mixed-auth (no NTLM in the headers) and also for me the paths look right. I try to attach a screenshot of Firefox's console with network traffic

Here the call to yuuvistest.domain.de:85/auth/info:

Even the OPTIONS-Request to yuuvistest.domain.de:85/login ist Code 200 and looks good. Just the login itself goes wrong and I don't get a clue about why...

(Page with loginform hosted on divisionen.pages.domain.de)

Best,
Stefan

edit: The problem was the same with v6, it did not change with the upgrade to v7
