How to enable Ticket base authentication ?

Hi,

I'm trying to use REST API of ACS 7.2 just like I was doing with the 5.2

I successfully retrieve a ticket 

curl -X POST "http://test-gedi/alfresco/api/-default-/public/authentication/versions/1/tickets" -H  "accept: application/json" -H  "authorization: Basic SkMyMDUyMzY6VGFyZHlmZXJvbjgwbWch" -H  "Content-Type: application/json" -d "{  \"userId\": \"myuser\",  \"password\": \"mypassword!\"}"

Download

 

{  "entry": {    "id": "TICKET_864ca3ef4000c43701d275b7704c6b57ccf0e842",    "userId": "myuser" } }

then I code it in base64 

But when I try to curl with this ticket (here is another one but)

curl  -X GET -H 'Accept: application/json' -H "Authorization: Basic VElDS0VUXzg2NGNhM2VmNDAwMGM0MzcwMWQyNzViNzcwNGM2YjU3Y2NmMGU4NDI=" "http://test-gedi/alfresco/api/-default-/public/alfresco/versions/1/nodes/-root-/children?maxItems=5"

I get a 401 error

</head><body><p>Login failed. Please try again.</p>
</body></html>

When I Try to activate 

with this url 

curl -X GET "http://test-gedi/alfresco/api/-default-/public/authentication/versions/1/tickets/-me-" -H  "accept: application/json" -H  "authorization: Basic SkMyMDUyMzY6VGFyZHlmZXJvbjgwbWch"

I get a maybe interesting error :

{  "error": {    "errorKey": "Ticket base authentication required.",    "statusCode": 400,    "briefSummary": "08050005 Ticket base authentication required.",    "stackTrace": "Pour des raisons de sécurité, le traçage de la pile n'est plus affiché, mais la propriété est conservée dans les versions précédente",    "descriptionURL": "https://api-explorer.alfresco.com"
  }
}

My code is perfectly working with 5.2 so I guess I missed a configuration somehow ..

It seems that authentification with ticket need to be activated/enable somewhere..

I'm user docker image .. 

Could anybody help ?

thank you !

To resolve the authentication issue in Alfresco ACS 7.2, double-check the ticket encoding, verify ticket expiration, and ensure ticket-based authentication is enabled in the docker image configuration.
