The default charset is used to encode the HTTP BASIC AUTH credentials string into a sequence of bytes. ISO-8859-1 should be used for Tomcat

      1. Create a user in Tomcat 7 with the manager-script role assigned to it. The credentials (username or password or both) should contain atleast one umlaut.
      e.g.:

      <user username="Schröder" password="script" roles="manager-script"/>

      2. The arquillian.xml file should specify the previously created user in the user and pass properties, and use the.
      e.g.:

      <property name="user">Schröder</property>
<property name="pass">script</property>

      3. Use the workaround specified in SHRINKDESC-97 to allow Arquillian to read the UTF-8 encoded arquillian.xml.

      4. Run the arquillian-tomcat-managed-7 tests, targetted against the configured Tomcat installation. The tests fail with the following error:

    Description

      Tomcat decodes the Authorization HTTP header containing the HTTP BASIC authentication credentials, using the ISO-8859-1 charset. On the contrary, Arquillian uses Charset.defaultCharset to encode the supplied credentials, before Base64 encoding the resulting byte array. This can result in a 401 error, when accessing the manager application on Tomcat; the failure will occur when the credentials contain characters that are encoded differently in ISO-8859-1 and the default charset of the environment. For example, if the default charset is UTF-8, then credentials containing ö will not be accepted by Tomcat as ö is encoded as 0xC3 0xB6 in UTF-8 and 0xF6 in ISO-8859-1.

      The suggested fix is to use ISO-8859-1 in CommonTomcatManager.constructHttpBasicAuthHeader() as listed:

            // Set up an authorization header with our credentials
      String credentials = configuration.getUser() + ":" + configuration.getPass();
      return "Basic "
                + new String(Base64.encodeBase64(credentials.getBytes(Charset.forName("ISO-8859-1"))), Charset.defaultCharset());

      instead of the existing

            // Set up an authorization header with our credentials
      String credentials = configuration.getUser() + ":" + configuration.getPass();
      return "Basic "
                + new String(Base64.encodeBase64(credentials.getBytes(Charset.defaultCharset())), Charset.defaultCharset());
