Bpel 12c - Call webservices with basic authenticat

Question

I'm using Oracle BPEL 12c to develop a process.

I need to call a external service with basic authentication. I need to pass the credentials received on my exposed service endpoint to the external service.

When i call, i receive this:

<remoteFault xmlns="http://schemas.oracle.com/bpel/extension">
-<part name="summary">
<summary>
oracle.fabric.common.FabricException: oracle.fabric.common.FabricException: Error in getting XML input stream:XXXXXX?WSDL: Server Authentication Required: Error in getting XML input stream: XXXX?WSDL: Server Authentication Required
</summary>
</part>
-<part name="detail">
<detail>Server Authentication Required</detail>
</part>
</remoteFault>

I tried to define on the composite, also the oracle.webservices.auth.password and oracle.webservices.auth.username password for the external service.

Also the javax.xml.ws.security.auth.username and javax.xml.ws.security.auth.password properties without sucess.

Any sugestion?

Kind regards, Ricardo

I suppose your composite snippet should look like this:

<reference name="Service1" ui:wsdlLocation="test1.wsdl">
    <interface.wsdl  interface="http://tempuri.org/#wsdl.interface(IService1)"/>
    <binding.ws port="http://tempuri.org/#wsdl.endpoint(Service1/BasicHttpBinding_IService1)"  location="test1.wsdl" soapVersion="1.1">
        <property name="weblogic.wsee.wsat.transaction.flowOption" type="xs:string" many="false">WSDLDriven</property>
        <property name="oracle.webservices.auth.username" type="xs:string" many="false">test</property>
        <property name="oracle.webservices.auth.password" type="xs:string" many="false">password</property>
        <property name="oracle.webservices.preemptiveBasicAuth" type="xs:string" many="false">true</property>
    </binding.ws>
</reference>

And also good practice to use variables when defining user and password instead of explicitly username and password

    <property name="oracle.webservices.auth.username" type="xs:string" many="false">{$username}</property>
     <property name="oracle.webservices.auth.password" type="xs:string" many="false">{$password}</property>

and then override them in generated cfg_plan.xml while deploying composite application

 <reference name="Service1">
     <!--Add search and replace rules for the binding properties-->
     <binding type="ws">
        <attribute name="port">
           <replace>{your_port}</replace>
        </attribute>
        <attribute name="location">
           <replace>{your_location}</replace>
        </attribute>
        <property name="weblogic.wsee.wsat.transaction.flowOption">
           <replace>WSDLDriven</replace>
        </property>
        <property name="oracle.webservices.auth.username">
           <replace>test</replace>
        </property>
        <property name="oracle.webservices.auth.password">
           <replace>password</replace>
        </property>
        <property name="oracle.webservices.preemptiveBasicAuth">
           <replace>true</replace>
        </property>
     </binding>
  </reference>
