How to differentiate between error due to authorization and wrong server url in OpenCMIS?

Question

By default, the inmemory repository has no username or password. Is there a way I can setup a username and password for it?

If not, the SessionFactory.createSession() always throws a CmisBaseException. How do i differentiate between failure due to wrong server url and authentication error? The error due to wrong server url contained a CmisConnectionException. I'm unable to find out what exception class is used in case of wrong username and password.

Please reply as early as possible.

Answer 1

Although I could not change the login credentials for the inmemory repository, I was able to differentiate between authorization error and wrong url error.

Here is what I did:

I tried logging into a nuxexo test server through my client with wrong user credentials: I caught a CmisBaseException. But, on obtaining the class name of the exception, it is: CmisUnauthorizedException

I tried with a wrong server url: I caught a CmisBaseException, But, the class name of the exception is CmisConnectionException.

So, one can make use of this property to differentiate between the two errors.
