I have my Web Server/IP as
http://username:password#site/path
in my HTTP Request Page in JMeter. I have checked "Retrieve Embedded Resources" in the page. The resources that are retrieved just show up as
http://site/path
and hence fails with a 404 Authentication error. How should i set up for the embedded resources also to include the username and password.
Remove username and password from your URL
Add HTTP Authorization Manager to your Test Plan and provide username and password there
HTTP Authorization Manager will automatically add basic authentication header to all requests including embedded and it should resolve the issue.

I am not able to login in a liferay application while replaying Jmeter script.
I have added HTTP Cookie Manager and update jmeter.properties file
CookieManager.save.cookies=true
I did not find any authentication token or dynamic id to handle.
While I logged in any non liferay application it is OK and I am getting login
Everything is seems correct by my side.
We are working on an application, which is protected with spring security saml.
Authentication works fine, but there is one problem with the following workflow in production environment.
user requests the unprotected address www.server.com
response is a html page with an inline script that changes window.location.href to the saml protected page (service provider) www.server.com/app/action?param1=value1¶m2=value2
spring saml detects that authentication is needed and redirects the user to the login form (identity provider) on www.login-server.com
at this point the login form is the first page that is displayed to the user
user adds this login page as bookmark (including saml related url params for this http session) www.login-server.com/adfs/ls/?SAMLRequest=xxx&SigAlg=xxx&Signature=arGdsZwJtHzTDjQP1oYqbjNO
user works with the application...
at the next day the user opens this bookmark and login
IdP redirects to the SP but the belonging http session has already expired
Now we get the following exception in our application:
org.opensaml.common.SAMLException: InResponseToField of the Response doesn't correspond to sent message arGdsZwJtHzTDjQP1oYqbjNO
Any ideas how to handle this workflow so the user can use the application after successful login?
Thanks for your answers!
We have solved our issue with following changes to the spring saml configuration:
In bean with id successRedirectHandler (org.springframework.security.web.authentication.SavedRequestAwareAuthenticationSuccessHandler) we set the defaultTargetUrl to the init-Action of our application (including all request parameters). This url will be automatically used in case of IdP initiated SSO.
In Bean with id contextProvider (org.springframework.security.saml.context.SAMLContextProviderLB) we set storageFactory to org.springframework.security.saml.storage.EmptyStorageFactory. This disables the check of the InResponseToField.
When you applicate generated an AuthnRequest, the request has an ID which your application somehow keeps. The corresponding response from IdP must have InResponseTo attribute set to that same ID value so that your application can verify that the response is meant to be for the request it sent.
However, when your user bookmarked the adfs link that contains request (www.login-server.com/adfs/ls/?SAMLRequest=xxx...), your application had totally forgotten about that request. In other word, it no longer kept the request ID somewhere and couldn't verify response.
The solution is to tell your users not to bookmark the www.login-server.com/adfs/ls/?SAMLRequest=xxx... link. Instead, they must bookmark a link in your application where it can generate a new request and send to ADFS.
I am trying to perform load testing using JMeter on my project's web service (search web service for instance), the problem I am facing is that I am getting {"Message":"Authorization has been denied for this request."} in "Response data" tab in JMeter
This same message I also get when I try to paste the same query string (which I am using in JMeter as Path) in browser new tab without logging in first,, but if I login on my project first and then try to paste the query string in browser's new tab then it works fine.
Now the actual problem that I am facing in JMeter is that I am unable to log in to the system using "HTTP Header Manager"
I tried by adding Basic authentication in "HTTP Header Manager" but it didn't worked, then my developer told me that he is using "ASP Membership" authentication instead of Basic authentication,, now I am not sure how to use this type of authentication in JMeter.
I think I have explained my problem in detail here, can any one please help me in this as I am really stuck into it.
Thanks in advance
You need to add a cookie-manager to your Thread Group. This will preserve the cookies ( hence sessions) between requests. Next add a http request which will do a POST of your login form then another HTTP Request with your actual request. This way you are imitating the steps you do on your browser - that is - login followed by request.
Looking into ASP.NET Forms Authentication Overview article:
Forms authentication lets you authenticate users by using your own code and then maintain an authentication token in a cookie or in the page URL.
So depending on implenentation of ASP.NET Forms on server side you can use one of the following test elements:
HTTP Cookie Manager
HTTP URL Re-writing Modifier
Also you may need to perform the correlation of the mandatory dynamic parameters such as VIEWSTATE or EVENTVALIDATION. See ASP.NET Login Testing with JMeter guide for detailed explanation and walkthrough.
I am doing a POC where I need to integrate the Shibboleth SP with OKTA idp provider.I have completed all below steps documented on OKTA official site for this integration.
Install Shibboleth Service Provider
2.Configure the webserver to use Shibboleth
3.Configure Shibboleth to protect a specific folder Create an Okta SAML 2.0 Template application
4.Modify Shibboleth to use the metadata obtained from the Okta application 5.Modify the attribute-map.xml file within Shibboleth
to set the appropriate header variables
6.Restart everything
But there are details missing from the step 5 where I need to modify the atrribute-map.xml. when I fire my protected URI(hosted on apache) it is getting redirected to OKTA login page. But after user enters the user-id and password and clicks login I get a spinner on my browser and it never takes me to my protected site URI hosted on Apache. Any clues to fix this attribute-mapping in Shibboleth SP is highly appreciated.
If the page is not being redirected to SP, he problem need not be with attributes-map.xml
Endpoints could be incorrectly configured. Check
{web app uri}/Shibboleth.sso/Metadata to see if the endpoint URLs are correctly defined.
Check Shibboleth2.xml if entityID is correctly defined, this is the web application that Shibboleth is protecting.
Check {web app uri}/Shibboleth.sso/Session this displays if all the attributes that are being sent from Okta. You can make it display the values too by changing Shibboleth2.xml since it is just POC.
Finally comes attributes-map.xml where you can configure attributes as agreed with Okta. There are some default attributes like NameID that are pre-configured here. You can see the format in attribute-map.xml and in /Shibboleth.sso/Session and code to make use accordingly. For example
formatter="$NameQualifier!$SPNameQualifier!$Name"
If you are adding custom attributes a simple element as shown below should work as long as the name is matching the attribute name that Okta is sending.
This issue was resolved by doing proper configuration on the OKTA side .OKTA provides sam2.0 template app for integration with shibboleth .The below mentioned parameters of this template app were properly configured.
Post Back URL -
Name ID Format - Transient
Recipient -
Audience Restriction -
authnContextClassRef - PasswordProtectedTransport
Response - Signed
Assertion - Signed
Request - Compressed
Destination -
Attribute Statements - username|${user.userName}
Then our integration was succesful
I'm currently working on building a WCF web Service, I was asked to use Basic Authentication over HTTPS and also to validate whether the user is present in an LDAP group for Authorization.
I searched in Internet and it is said that Active Directory Authentication is not available in IIS and we should use our own Custom Basic Authentication Module or UserNamePasswordValidator.
Link I used for coding Custom Authentication Module
I have hosted the WCF in local IIS with SSL and now it is running under https.
The question is, If I implement this one, I need to add the Authorization header manually it seems. Is there any other way I can get the User Name or Password entered in the Basic Authentication dialog which is showed when we open the service in a browser ?.
OR
could you please provide an advice on what are the things I need to do to implement the above said Security ?
I'm helpless and requesting your help on this !!!!. Thanks in Advance.
Background:
I also tried UserNamePasswordValidator, but it was doing at the Application level, I was able to view the wsdl file (Meta data of the web service without even providing credentials) so I did went with the Custom Basic Authentication Module.
With Custom Basic Authentication Module , it is asking for credentials before the svc is opened in browser. So I think this would best suite. Please provide your valuable suggestions.
Basic authentication works by the web server returning a 401.0 status code AND a WWW-Authenticate response header with the value 'Basic real="xxx"' where the realm is simply information shown to the user so that they understand what is asking for the authentication. When the browser receives this type of response, it displays a dialogue box to the user asking for a username/password. The browser then re-submits the originally requested URL, but also includes an 'Authorization' header whose value is a base64 encoded string which includes the username and password.
A custom authentication module for IIS basically has to handle this interaction. For each request that comes in, it needs to see if there is an 'Authorization' header, and if so, it extracts the username/password, authenticates them in whatever fashion it likes, and if successful sets up the Context.User. If there is no 'Authorization' header, or the username/password are not valid, then the module must set the response code to 401.0, and ensure that there is a WWW-Authenticate header (as described above).
In order to use the module, all other authentication modules in IIS must be disabled (although there seem to be some circumstances in which the anonymous authentication module should be enabled). Due to caching in IIS, don't be surprised if not all requests are passed to your authentication module.
