How to use Webservice

[IwanCS]

Hi, i'm using version 1.4.5.1

I want to use the webservice.

I've setup the webservice as on the help, which is:

- Enable the webservice on the webservice tab

- Generate HTAAccess

- Add new key

- Enable access for all table to view

- Generate a key

- Save it

 

then i want to test the webservice, so i type the address:

www.myweb.com/presta/api

the browser then asking abount user and password

Then i copied the generated key in the username box

Then i enter to execute it, but it showing the user and password dialog again .. and again

 

So what am i missing here.

For information: i'm putting prestashop in a sub folder so i have to write an .htaaccess to enable redirecting www.myweb.com to www.myweb.com/presta

I've activate the SEO url friendly name and it work as expected, so it should be not the problem with the url rewriting rule capabality

 

Thanks

 

Iwan

I have the same problem. Did you finally solved it?

I didn't see your question before, so I created my own post here (no answer so far):

I had the same problem of the thread starter, the site kept asking for the username/password, but with that fix now it works. I don't understand why it's needed and if I could have fixed in the server configuration maybe.
