Hi,

When running TestMain (from Java BWS Sample), I can successfully get as far as initializing credentials, but at the line

GetUsersResponse response = _bws.getUsers(request);

it produces a 401 error.

Starting to intiialize credentials...

Credentials initialized.

Starting to retrieve users...
Exception in thread "main" com.sun.xml.internal.ws.client.ClientTransportException: The server sent HTTP status code 401: Unauthorized
        at com.sun.xml.internal.ws.transport.http.client.HttpTransportPipe.checkStatusCode (HttpTransportPipe.java:196)

We use Active Directory, and the username/pw in the java code are my own, which I use to log onto the BAS console.

I'm running the java script locally on my pc.  The encoded username is "8,16,0,1,1,0;amarasnybas.ad.dpw-ama.com00"

Any ideas please?

Thank you.

Did you modify the code to use the Active Directory Authenticator? If not it would be trying to authenticate your username and password against a non-existent BAS account which would explain the 401.

This may not be the best way to do it, but I modified setup() to include a call to GetAuthenticatorsRequest(); and used the authenticator it returned in GetEncodedUsernameRequest(), which seemed to do the trick.

private static boolean setup() {
  String strBASURL=System.getProperty("basurl");
  URL serviceUrl = null;
  URL utilServiceUrl=null;

  //The Metadata object includes information about this application, it is included with every call
  _meta.setClientVersion(_clientVersion);
  _meta.setOrganizationUid("0"); //Not used currently, set to "0"
  _meta.setLocale(_locale);

  try {
   serviceUrl = new URL("https://" + strBASURL + "/enterprise/admin/ws?wsdl");
   utilServiceUrl = new URL("https://" + strBASURL + "/enterprise/admin/util/ws?wsdl");
  } catch (MalformedURLException e) {
   System.err.println("Cannot initialize the wsdl");
   return false;
  }

  //Initialize our web service stubs that will be used for all calls
  _myBWSService = new BWSService(serviceUrl);
  _bws = _myBWSService.getBWS();
  _myBWSUtilService = new BWSUtilService(utilServiceUrl);
  _bwsUtil = _myBWSUtilService.getBWSUtil();

  String username=System.getProperty("username");
  String password=System.getProperty("password");

  
GetAuthenticatorsRequest request2 = new GetAuthenticatorsRequest();
request2.setMetadata(_meta);
GetAuthenticatorsResponse response2 = _bwsUtil.getAuthenticators(request2);
if (response2.getReturnStatus().getCode().compareTo("SUCCESS") != 0)
{       System.out.println("Error occurred: " + response2.getReturnStatus().getMessage());  

}
else if (response2.getAuthenticators() != null)
{       for (Authenticator itr:response2.getAuthenticators())
    {           System.out.println(itr.getName() + ", " + itr.getUid() + ", " + (itr.getAuthenticatorType().isINTERNAL() ? "internal" : "plugin"));
   authenticator = itr;
    }
}

  GetEncodedUsernameRequest request=new GetEncodedUsernameRequest();
  request.setMetadata(_meta);
  request.setUsername(username);
  request.setOrgUid("0");
  String domainName = "ad.dpw-ama.com";
  //set credentialType
  CredentialType credentialType = new CredentialType();
  credentialType.setPASSWORD(true);
  credentialType.setValue(password);
  request.setCredentialType(credentialType);
  //"authenticator" was returned from the getAuthenticators() API
  //BlackBerry Administration Service authentication requires only a username and password
  //(identical to the BAS Web Console)
  request.setAuthenticator(authenticator);
  //PLUGIN authentication, ex. "Active Directory", also requires a "domain" to be set
  //(identical to the BAS Web Console)
  if(authenticator.getAuthenticatorType().isPLUGIN())
  {       request.setDomain(domainName);
  }
GetEncodedUsernameResponse geurResponse= _bwsUtil.getEncodedUsername(request);

  if (geurResponse.getReturnStatus().getCode().compareTo("SUCCESS") != 0){
   System.out.println("Error occurred: " + geurResponse.getReturnStatus().getMessage());
   return false;
  }

  String myEncodeUsername = geurResponse.getEncodedUsername();

  //Set http basic authentication on the web service
  BindingProvider bp = (BindingProvider)_bws;
  bp.getRequestContext().put(BindingProvider.USERNAME_PROPERTY, myEncodeUsername);
  bp.getRequestContext().put(BindingProvider.PASSWORD_PROPERTY, password);

  return true;
 }

Thanks very much!
