If I use an Incognito window or a different browser, I now get ‘{"error":"Authentication failure."}’ in a browser as expected. The original browser still gets ‘{"error":"Something went wrong, check the logs."}’. (Although I think there might be issues with RESTPublicAPI still but I haven’t cared enough to investigate them.)<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Tomas: Nope. This is using Plack. I think it’s probably related to browser sessions and cookies, which is why it was fine with curl. I didn’t think we used cookie auth anymore for the API, since it’s not mentioned in the wiki, but I recall the REST API is sometimes used within Koha now? So I guess that’s how it uses it? I have noticed that RESTBasicAuth doesn’t work with non-Plack, but that was unrelated to koha-testing-docker (except I have proved it in koha-testing-docker). <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>I think I’m ironing out some of my issues with the REST API.
