GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 271540
failed authentication with multiple requests
Last modified: 2007-03-17 18:54:55 UTC
If you try to download multiple files in the same session which require authentication, the 401 from the initial requests invalidate the authentication credentials for the following requests. Somehow this eventually results in a 'authentication failed' error being sent to the application (even though it provided correct credentials). Connecting to the 'reauthenticate' signal on the session works around the problem.
