Hi
I’ve encountered error when I tried to enable HTTP BASIC AUTH for REST API. I am using standalone WAR deployment (camunda-webapp-tomcat-standalone-7.9.0.war)
In my web.xml, I enabled BASIC AUTH as recommended in Configure Authentication | docs.camunda.org
When I try to access my localhost camunda:
HTTP Status 500 – Internal Server Error
Type Exception Report
Message String index out of range: -10
Description The server encountered an unexpected condition that prevented it from fulfilling the request.
Exception
java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: -10
java.lang.String.substring(String.java:1931)
org.camunda.bpm.engine.rest.security.auth.ProcessEngineAuthenticationFilter.doFilter(ProcessEngineAuthenticationFilter.java:117)
Note The full stack trace of the root cause is available in the server logs.
Here’s my web.xml highlighting the BASIC AUTH filter:
