the method expects named parameters (as opposed to the list of values
you're giving). I don't know the syntax of the tool you're using, but
it needs to be something along the lines of
serverProxy.User.login(login => username, password => password). See
contrib/bz_webservice_demo.pl.

Kind regards
Marc

Hi Marc,

sorry for the delay.

that works. I pass a Map as Parameter and it works fine, I can perform
the login.

Thanks a lot!

Hey guys,

What about other XML-RPC-API methods ?

I'm having a trouble with logging in too.

When i use User.login method, Bugzilla actually returns a user id
properly. But that "logged in" user is not getting any permissions (as
if he is not logged in).

For example when i use Product.get_enterable_products, bugzilla
returns only those products, which are only enterable for anonymous
users and when i log in to bugzilla with the same user data - i can
see more products that this user may enter bugs to.



I'm coding in PHP using PEAR XML_RPC2 lib:

//this here is ok, i get user id returned
$userparms=array('login'=>'111@111.111','password'=>'111','remember'=>1);
$userid = $bugzilla_conn->__call('User.login',$userparms);
//then i want to get selectable (or enterable products), and i'm
getting only available for anonymous user
//and if i turn bugzilla parameter `requirelogin` on, i get a message
"Login required".
$productlist = $bugzilla_conn-
>__call('Product.get_selectable_products','');



Maybe cookies are causing a trouble? When i'm logging in using XML-
RPC, should cookies of Bugzilla web page change (if they were set to
other user's data) ? They are not changing now.

Also as written in http://www.bugzilla.org/docs/tip/htm...vice/User.html,
a http set of cookies should be returned along with a user id. I'm not
sure if i get those cookies (i dont see those 'Set-Cookie' headers in
server response). Should I look deeper here ?

Am i missing something important ? Any ideas would be appreciated .

regards, Al

The Login now works. But my XML-RPC-Framework does not support
Cookies. So there is no way to use the Login-XMLRPC for me. The other
way to use a URL like http://usernameassword@url.to/my/bugzilla/xmlrpc.cgi
does not work either. I am getting again the errormessage "fault
string = "Login Required", fault code = 410".

As far as I can see, the XMLRPC API of Bugzilla is designed for a
special XMLRPC-Client or it is still very experimental and not for
usage in production environments.

this way of logging in is designed for HTTP authentication. Apache
supports HTTP authentication via mod_auth* modules, and Bugzilla can
piggyback on this using the ENV authentication method (see Bugzilla's
user_info_class parameter). If your installation is set up like this,
then you can use
http://usernameassword@url.to/my/bugzilla/xmlrpc.cgi style
authentication.

Currently Bugzilla is locking clients not supporting cookies out,
true. Are cookie-supporting XMLRPC clients uncommon? The only client
I've met is Perl, so I don't really know.

Hi!

Apache http authentication is really works! Bugzilla's auth_env_email
parameter should be set to REMOTE_USER (in most cases probably) and
user_info_class parameter should be set to ENV,CGI or just ENV. And it
is very important that access to bugzilla MUST be secured via apache
http authentication! If it is not secured - REMOTE_USER environment
variable just not being created.

Finally users got their permissions! Woohoo!

Thank you for cooperation ;-)

Hi All,

I am creating a client in PHP xml-rpc,
i am able to use User.login method,
$result=$client->send(xmlrpc_encode_request('User.login',array('log in'=>'username','password'=>'password')));
which returns,

xmlrpcresp Object

But when i try to create Bug.create, it gives error 'Got xmlrpc fault 410
Login Required',
$result=$client->send(xmlrpc_encode_request('Bug.create',$values));
i m passing following array to create bug,
Array
(
[product] => TestProduct
[component] => TestComponent
[summary] => Test Summary
[version] => unspecified
[description] => Desc
[op_sys] => Linux
[platform] => PC
[priority] => P2
[severity] => blocker
),
do i need to pass cookie along with parameters of bug?
