I am not able to connect to cms with java using core service.

I have done the following steps

core-service url i am using like http://CMS-Server/webservices/CoreService2011.svc?wsdl

maven configuration is like

  • created authenticator class

    public class BasicHttpAuthenticator extends Authenticator {
    
    private final String user;
    private final String password;
    
    public BasicHttpAuthenticator(String user, String password) {
        this.user = user;
        this.password = password;
    }
    
    @Override
    protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication(){
        return new PasswordAuthentication(user, password.toCharArray());
    }
    }
    

connecting to core service like

private static final QName Q_NAME = new QName("http://www.sdltridion.com/ContentManager/CoreService","CoreService2011");

public String connectCoreService() throws Exception {
    BasicHttpAuthenticator basicHttpAuthenticator = new BasicHttpAuthenticator(username, password);
    Authenticator.setDefault(basicHttpAuthenticator);
    URL url = new URL(wsdl);
    CoreService2011 service = new CoreService2011(url,Q_NAME);
    ICoreService endpoint = service.getBasicHttp();
    UserData currentUser = endpoint.getCurrentUser();
    System.out.println(String.format("'%s' %s", currentUser.getTitle(), currentUser.getId()));
    return "core service connected";
}

but getting error at time when calling

endpoint.getCurrentUser();

with error message :-

please provide some input, so that would help me to solve this.

  • Are you running the Java client directly on the server - if so, does the Core Service webservice accept "Basic Authentication" Oct 14, 2016 at 10:36
  • Hi Dylan, I am running client from my machine and trying to connect CMS server and failing, but i can connect cms directly from browser and authentication of my machine is different from authentication of cms. Oct 14, 2016 at 10:48

    Neetesh - can you update your question to clarify that is doesn't work under s specific condition but it does in others so readers can better visual the scenario you're in. And on that - I believe that if you run it from the application it will be trying to connect via Basic Authentication and not using the credentials you supply in code - thus you should confirm that (1) Basic Authentication is permitted through the webservice and (2) the user you are logged in has the permissions required to access the webservice.

  • Hi Dylan, i am providing correct authentication through which i connect cms, but i suspect that when using Basic Authentication it is picking my machine authentication, although i am not able to find actual problem, to run application from cms server i don't have permission right now, if i get permission then i check and update the question.

If this works when using your browser but doesn't when you try to use the application directly / on the server then it could be that the application will be trying to connect via Basic Authentication and not using the credentials you supply in code.

You should confirm that

  • Basic Authentication is permitted through the webservice and
  • the user you are logged in has the permissions required to access the webservice

  • Dylan, Thanks for your feedback, I've tried with Binding username and password property to client and i can access CMS now. Oct 18, 2016 at 5:11

I have tried by binding username and password property, which i was missing.

so i have removed this line

ICoreService endpoint = service.getBasicHttp();

and added

    ICoreService client = service.getPort(ICoreService.class);
    BindingProvider bp = (BindingProvider) client;
    bp.getRequestContext().put(BindingProvider.USERNAME_PROPERTY, "domain\\username");
    bp.getRequestContext().put(BindingProvider.PASSWORD_PROPERTY, "password");

after this now i am able to access cms using core service

public String connectCoreService() throws Exception {

        BasicHttpAuthenticator basicHttpAuthenticator = new BasicHttpAuthenticator(username, password);
        Authenticator.setDefault(basicHttpAuthenticator);

        URL url = new URL(wsdl);
        CoreService2011 service = new CoreService2011(url, Q_NAME);

        ICoreService client = service.getPort(ICoreService.class);
        BindingProvider bp = (BindingProvider) client;
        bp.getRequestContext().put(BindingProvider.USERNAME_PROPERTY, "domain\\username");
        bp.getRequestContext().put(BindingProvider.PASSWORD_PROPERTY, "password");

        UserData currentUser = client.getCurrentUser();
        System.out.println(String.format("'%s' %s", currentUser.getTitle().getValue(), currentUser.getId().getValue()));
        return "core service connected";
    }
