    Problems with Upload and Safari (IIS7 + Basic Authentication)

    Hi,
     
    we are facing an issue when we try to upload files with Safari 3.2 (Mac) and Flash enabled. We are using the "Framework 2.0-Csharp-NoAjax\multiple-files-upload.aspx" demo application for testing.
     
    The Webserver ist running Windows Serevr 2008 IIS7. The Authentication is done via SSL128 and "Basic authentication".
     
    When opening the page we are asked to provide username/password. After inputing the necessary information we are able to browse the demo application as usual. However, when we try to upload a file we get a "HTTP 401" error dialog. The problem can't be reproduced using anonymous authentication. Furthermore Basic authentication works fine on Windows XP with Firefox/IE7.
     
    Do you have any ideas what might cause this behaviour of Safari?

    Hi,
     
    Flash do not support any http authentication.
     
    We are working on a solution that redirect the upload request to a none-auth-folder.
     
    That would take some days.
     
    Before we fixed that issue, you can use UploadType=IFrame temporary.
     
    Regards,
    Terry
