Force StresStimulus to make an Auth header

ignjatov Posts: 3 5/26/2020	ignjatov Posts: 3 Hi, I get 401 Unauthorized error when replaying. As per requests comparison, looks like StresStimulus does not form an authorization header. How can I force it to reply it correctly, to include the authorization header properly, like it is in recorded request? Thanks, Milorad Attachments: Response.PNG Request.PNG

In your screenshot, the Authorization header is missing in the authentication request and the x-ws-not-sent header is seen instead. This is an indication that the credentials you provided were used for authentication but the server rejected it due to inaccuracies. It is difficult to determine what the issue is without looking at your test but here are some thoughts: Check your credentials. Many times the domain field should be left blank. To check your credentials open a different browser, like Firefox, and type your credentials in the browser dialog box to verify they are correct. If Firefox does not take the domain, then you should not use the domain - Cheers
