URLSession on Linux giving different result than on iOS - swift

I've got a simple class making a HTTP POST request (to a Neo4j server, but that shouldn't matter) using URLSession, and an integration test that tests that it succeeds.
Through Xcode, via the iOS simulator, I can run this test a million times - it succeeds every time.
However, when I run swift test on Ubuntu Linux (I use the docker image provided by IBM) then I very often will get a test failure saying I got a 401 response.
Replicating that via cURL in the container does not fail at all, so I do not believe this to be a problem with my container.
I have added a packet dump (that I inspect via Charles Proxy) where our of 15 test runs, 7 test runs (and thus 7 requests) fail. All of the failed requests complain that no authentication header was supplied. And from the dump, that is correct, the dump does not contain the authentication header for those requests that fail. But why not? In fact, all of the header flags are different: a successful run has these headers:
POST /db/data/cypher HTTP/1.1
Host: 192.168.0.18:7474
Accept-Encoding: deflate, gzip
Authorization: Basic bmVvNGo6c3RhY2swdmVyRmxvdw==
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8
Accept: application/json; charset=utf-8
Connection: keep-alive
User-Agent: urlsessionTestPackageTests.xctest (unknown version) curl/7.35.0
Content-Length: 135
while an unsuccessful one has these:
POST /db/data/cypher HTTP/1.1
Host: 192.168.0.18:7474
Accept: */*
Accept-Encoding: deflate, gzip
Connection: keep-alive
User-Agent: urlsessionTestPackageTests.xctest (unknown version) curl/7.35.0
Content-Length: 135
All the 200 results have the same headers, and all the 401 results have the same headers. Can you see anything in my code that should warrant such a random request?

HttpClient Get works when Fiddler is on and fails with 403 when fiddler is not running

I have seen many posts but none of the solution is helping me. I have a simple get to one of the Amazon new webservices. The client is HttpClient.
When fiddler is on it passes and gets me result. When fiddler is not running it fails. Since it was not failing when fiddler was on, i installed another tool "Http Debugger" to see the failure and i could not make any difference in both the request (The pass and the failure). Bothe of them are given below

sapui5 OData.V4.oDataModel with Teiid 11.2 / Wildfly

I am trying to use SAPUI5 in a SPA to display data from a TEIID/Wildfly ODataV4 service. When SAPUI5 ODATA V4 data model is bound to the service, I run into several errors. I thereby connect via proxy (grunt-connect-proxy2) to the odata service. Basic Auth works. The metadata file above the marked service folder in the attached image (screenshot1) is the actual metadata file of the service which, as you can see, is loaded correctly. So no CORS issue or authorization issue.
Screenshot1
The issue seems to be related to an CSRF Token request as far as I understand. Seems that Teiid/Wildfly is not answering the CSRF Token fetch request. Is there a way to configure Wildfly to answer the request or alternatively a way to disable CSRF requests for the odata V4 model? I have seen such an option in the constructor of the odata V2 model. How could a working configuration look like?
The following is a screenshot from the browser log:
I observed a further issue, from which I do not know if it is related to the previous one (there is also a X-CSRF-Token: Fetch involved), or if a have something more missing somewhere. The second issue happens when I use an aggregation binding to bind a odata collection to a sapui5 list. The response looks like

Further note regarding search for a workaround: As I am currently searching for a workaround to be able to use the odata.v4 model, I found the following blog post:
https://blogs.sap.com/2015/08/05/disable-csrf-token-for-odata-calls-using-sap-netweaver-gateway/
However, the approach does not seem to work for the odata.v4 model as it has a different interface. There is no setHeaders() function to set custom headers on the datamodel. I therefore tried to set the header up via
$.ajaxSetup({headers: {'X-Requested-With': 'X'}});
Unfortunately, this also does not work. If someone has the odata.v4 Model running with TEIID or Olingo v4 it would be great if he could give me a feedback on how he had worked around this issue.

How to get messages from ActiveMQ using REST requests

I am sending message to queue using following request:
POST http://localhost:8161/api/message/PR?type=queue
Host: localhost:8161
Authorization: Basic YWRtaW46YWRtaW4=
User-Agent: curl/7.48.0
Accept: */*
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Content-Length: 12
Then I go to the admin UI and I see the queue and the message there.
Now the question, how can I retrieve this message?

curl, play & expect 100 continue header

consider a web service written in play, which excepts POST request (for uploads). now, when testing this with a medium size image (~75K) I've found out a strange behaviour. well, code speaks more clearly than long explanations, so:
$ curl -vX POST localhost:9000/path/to/upload/API -H "Content-Type: image/jpeg" -d #/path/to/mascot.jpg
* Hostname was NOT found in DNS cache
* Trying 127.0.0.1...
* Connected to localhost (127.0.0.1) port 9000 (#0)
> POST /path/to/upload/API HTTP/1.1
> User-Agent: curl/7.35.0
> Host: localhost:9000
> Accept: */*
> Content-Type: image/jpeg
> Content-Length: 27442
> Expect: 100-continue
>
< HTTP/1.1 100 Continue
< HTTP/1.1 200 OK
< Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8
< Content-Length: 16
<
* Connection #0 to host localhost left intact
{"success":true}
as you can see, curl decides to add the header Content-Length: 27442, but it's not true, the real size is 75211, and in play, I indeed got a body in size only 27442. of coarse, this is not the intended behaviour. so I tried a different tool, instead of curl I used the POST tool from libwww-perl:
cat /path/to/mascot.jpg | POST -uUsSeE -c image/jpeg http://localhost:9000/path/to/upload/API
POST http://localhost:9000/path/to/upload/API
User-Agent: lwp-request/6.03 libwww-perl/6.05
Content-Length: 75211
Content-Type: image/jpeg
200 OK
Content-Length: 16
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8
Client-Date: Mon, 16 Jun 2014 09:21:00 GMT
Client-Peer: 127.0.0.1:9000
Client-Response-Num: 1
{"success":true}
this request succeeded. so I started to pay more attention to the differences between the tools. for starter: the Content-Length header was correct, but also, the Expect header was missing from the second try. I want the request to succeed either way. so the full list of headers as seen in play (via request.headers) is:
for curl:
ArrayBuffer((Content-Length,ArrayBuffer(27442)),
(Accept,ArrayBuffer(*/*)),
(Content-Type,ArrayBuffer(image/jpeg)),
(Expect,ArrayBuffer(100-continue)),
(User-Agent,ArrayBuffer(curl/7.35.0)),
(Host,ArrayBuffer(localhost:9000)))
for the libwww-perl POST:
ArrayBuffer((TE,ArrayBuffer(deflate,gzip;q=0.3)),
(Connection,ArrayBuffer(TE, close)),
(Content-Length,ArrayBuffer(75211)),
(Content-Type,ArrayBuffer(image/jpeg)),
(User-Agent,ArrayBuffer(lwp-request/6.03 libwww-perl/6.05)),
(Host,ArrayBuffer(localhost:9000)))
So my current thoughts are: the simpler perl tool used a single request, which is bad practice. the better way would be to wait for a 100 continue confirmation (especially if you gonna' upload a several GB of data...). curl would continue to send data until it receives a 200 OK or some bad request error code. So why play sends the 200 OK response without waiting for the next chunk? is it because curl specifies the wrong Content-Length? if it's wrong at all... (perhaps this refers to the size of the current chunk?).
so where's the problem lies? in curl or in the play webapp? and how do I fix it?
the problem was in my curl command. I used the -d argument, which is a short for --data or --data-ascii, when I should have used --data-binary argument.

Fiddler not capturing WCF traffic from the web server to the application server

I have two possible flows:
ConsoleClient -(1)-> ApplicationServer
or
SilverlightClient -(2)-> WebServer -(3)-> ApplicationServer
Fiddler successfully captures the HTTP traffic on the (1) and the (2), but not on the (3). Here is a sample capture on (1):

Now, I am absolutely sure the (3) does get through. So, it all boils down to some misconfiguration on the WebServer, but I cannot nail it. The Web server is just a trivial ASP.NET application hosted within IIS. It even has the following lines in the web.config:
<system.net>
<defaultProxy>
<proxy bypassonlocal="false" usesystemdefault="true" />
</defaultProxy>
</system.net>
Still, this does not work.
To further strengthen my suspicion on the web server configuration, I have checked the SilverlightClient --> ApplicationServer flow and it is captured just fine.
I am using the Asp.Net development server.
Edit
Running procmon reveals that the following suspicious registry key is consulted (amongst others):
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\ProxyBypass
And on my machine it was set to 1. I have changed it to 0 and seems like it solved my issue. The only problem is that when I change it back to 1 Fiddler continues to capture the problematic leg! Very interesting.
Anyway, I am satisfied, for now.
You are calling "localhost" right?
Fiddler is not able to capture the local traffic if you are using "localhost" as hostname.
Solutions:
Use servername (e.g. myserver)
Use ip4.fiddler (e.g. http://ipv4.fiddler:8787)
Not sure if these are causing it ... but,
A few things to check:
In IIS7 the appPool has a loadUserProfile setting. It causes the session to load a user profile which means it can get system proxy settings.
Check the code making the request from the webServer - even if you configure to use the system proxy and bypass onLocal (which only applies to names without dots in it), code making the request can still explicitly set to use or not to use a proxy.
Far fetched but you may want to play with the account the appPool runs as - local account with profile vs. Network Service.
Hope that helps - these network things have a lot of variables between two points :)
