198652 - composer generates error when publishing to webdav server with digest auth

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(SeaMonkey :: Composer, defect)

Description

[Paul Sharpe]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.3) Gecko/20030312
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.3) Gecko/20030312

When publishing to a URL using webdav composer I see an auth error in the server
logs but the file *is* published.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure Apache/2.0.44 (Unix) DAV/2 server with URL protected by digest auth
2. tail -f httpd error log
3. Publish test page in composer to URL above

Actual Results:  
As soon as the username/password dialog box pops up I see the following error in
the httpd error log:

  [DATE] [error] [client IP] Digest: user USER: password mismatch: /test.html

When I enter the password the file is published correctly.

Expected Results:  
Published the file without producing an error.

I published a file to the same URL with cadaver and no errors were seen in the
error log.  The reason I did this test is that I'm having webdav+digest issues
with the calendar component (196785) and trying to establish where the bug
should be filed.
