Alfodoo in Safari browser about alfodoo HOT 8 CLOSED

@jeanpaulrobineau
Thank you for the report. Nevertheless I don't have safari on my ubuntu machine. It's therefore not possible to me to fix this issue. You must be sure that safari allows cross domain request from JS (CORS ). You should also check that all the headers into the cross domain request are allowed by your configuration of your alfresco server (http://alfodoo.org/guides/install.html#enable-cors-in-alfresco-5-x).

Hi,

I have been investigating on this issue.

Both chrome and safari are sending the same origin header, the only difference between both is how they react to the

What happens with chrome:

1. an ajax request is sent without an authorization header to alfresco
2. alfresco returns status 401 with a json error message payload
3. Chrome displays a popup to the user, requesting for the password
4. an ajax request is sent again with the proper authorization header to alfresco
5. alfresco returns the requested json payload.
6. success

What happens with safari:

1. an ajax request is sent without an authorization header to alfresco
2. alfresco returns status 401 with a json error message payload
3. a second ajax request is sent without an authorization header to alfresco
4. alfresco returns status 401 with a json error message payload
5. Safari displays the error message from the json error payload "...Authentication failed...", but does not prompt the user for a password.
6. failure

I have not been able to figure out why safari does things differently in step 3.
I can't figure out if this is an issue with the cmis.js or superagent.js javascript lib.

any ideas ?

@lmignon FYI, on iOS neither Safari, Firefox or Chrome is working, but resulting in an authentication failure.

@kgoderis I'll try to find a MAC to investigate what's wrong on IOS.
