I am configuring UI 2012 on Tridion 2011 SP1 HR2

I am currently bamboozled by an error I get when clicking "Update Preview"

It makes a call to

/WebUI/Models/SiteEdit/Services/Services.svc/GetPreviewToken

and returns

{"ExceptionDetail":null,"ExceptionType":null,"Message":"Authorization failed. Please make sure the proper username and password have been configured in the Publication Target.","StackTrace":null}

I have commented out all security sections in cd_ambient_conf files

    Nice use of the word bamboozled

    Your OData webservice is probably still configured to use security (that's the default). Change it, look here for a sample: code.google.com/p/kickstart-tridion-environment/source/browse/…

  • Could you verify that the oData webservice is indeed called by checking the IIS logs? And that is returns a 401 when being called from the content manager?

On the publication target properties in the CMS you most likely need to specify the authorization credentials. See screenshot.
