I know HTTP 'Digest' is not recommended for production, but the use case
is an internal web service that doesn't rise to requiring certificates,
SSL, etc.
Actual deployment is on Tomcat 7, where everything went very smoothly.
However, the test framework relies on Jetty 9 under 'gretty' as part of
the build process and that's where I ran into problems.
If I setup the realm.properties file to hold the password in plain-text,
it works fine, but an MD5 hash does not. I tried generating the hash
using both md5sum at the command line and the Apache Tomcat 'digest.sh'
tool. Both generate identical results. I placed the hash in the
properties file with an 'MD5:' prefix per documentation but it simply does
not authenticate.
Since plain-text works, I have to assume the problem is either a Jetty bug
or misunderstanding on my part. Would appreciate some input on this
problem - thanks!
