Question:

Chilkat HTTP Login Failure

Oct 16 '14 at 13:39

Hallo,

i used a old Chilkat Library from 2009 in my Visual Studio 2008. No I use Visual Studio 2010 and updadet the Library to

Chilkat C/C++ Libs for VC++ 10.0 SP1 / win32

No i have the problem that,

http.put_Login("xyz"); 
http.put_Password("myPassword");

there nothing happens. The server didnt accept my authentification.

With the old Library there was no problem. but no it dont work. Is there a failure in the Library?

Please help me...


Accepted Answer

Leon,

In the ActiveX version I need to set BasicAuth = 1. I would think the .net versions are the same. This was added by Chilkat to make sure we understand that we are sending credentials in clear text.

I found a solution:

In the new Version i must set: http.put_BasicAuth(1);
