Jhipster Jwt Authentication for Mobile API

I have a jHipster project with Jwt Authentication but I can't get it to work outside de webapp. I'm currently developping a Android application and the authentication process get harder than I expected.
Basically I'm sending the parameters of the LoginDTO, to UserJwtController#authorize ('/api/authenticate'). At first I was getting Unauthorized, both on Android or Postman (I'm using it to test the requests).
If I change the '/api' to permitAll, I'm getting 405, Request method 'POST' not supported.
EDIT
It was a wrong typo on Android :/

It works fine for me against /api/authenticate, so either you use wrong URL (e.g. /api/authorize) or your JSON payload is wrong. The only issue you could have is with CORS. You should consider testing with curl as it is easier than PostMan for reporting here what you really do and also the curl options are already built for you in JHipster swagger page.

403 AuthFailureError in Volley

I am having a very strange situation. I have a running script that makes JsonObjectRequest using Volley Singletone. The script has been working perfectly in domain example1.com. Recently I bought example2.com and hosted in the same hosting account. And when I copy all the php files as it is in the second domain, I am getting error "BasicNetwork.performRequest: Unexpected response code 403".
So, I have exactly same php files called using JsonObjectRequest and Volley Singletone working in example1.com, but not in example2.com. I have check the permission of the files in both domain, they are exactly same (644) and there is no htaccess in either of the domain.
I am stuck and don't understand what else I should check?
Any help will be highly appreciated.

Problem is with your server side php script - You can first try to test POST requests using some tool before implementing in your Android application:
If I performed a simple POST request (just using browser not Android) to your provided link I get following error:
403: Forbidden
403 Forbidden Forbidden You
don't have permission to access /mylibman_4_5.php on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to
use an ErrorDocument to handle the request. Apache
Server at mylibrarymanager.com Port 80

SendLogsRequestListener failure in worklight

I am re-implementing an existing worklight system. We have already have a hybrid version. We have decided to re-implement the Client side in pure native. The native client seems work fine.
However, the server seems to be quite unstable - sometimes we don't get a server response after invoking an adapter, sometimes we do get. I have checked the DDMS/Android console. And a Error/Exception was found. Any comments would be appreciated!
com.worklight.common.Logger$SendLogsRequestListener(4274): Logger$SendLogsRequestListener.onFailure in Logger.java:1726 :: Failed to POST data from file /data/data/${APP_NAME}/files/analytics.log.0.send due to: HTTP response code: 500

On a successful adapter call or WLClient connection to the server, the client will attempt to automatically send logs to the server. It looks like something bad is happening on the autosend for adapters. A temporary workaround would be to disable this auto sending behavior by calling
WL.Logger.setAutoSendLogs(false)
But you can only use this call if you do not wish for logs to be sent automatically. If you do wish to have this working properly, I'd suggest opening a PMR so that it can be determined if this is an error in your application or an actual defect.

Ajax requests on native android apps

I have packaged a Sencha Touch 2 app with PhoneGap for Android. I can't get the ajax requests to work on my native application. When I handle the request through the browser on http://mydomain.com/mysenchaapp/android/assets/www/ it works fine, however, when I run my app through the emulator as a native app my request fails. I think it would be helpful if I could get fiddler to work on handling native apps' request as well, but I haven't been able to figure that out either. Any help is appreciated.

On a native application you can use cross-domain get requests without using JSONP. I got it to work. My problem accessing the servlet was another issue.

You can't use Ajax for Cross-Domain GET requests, you should use JSONP instead. Take a look at the documentation for Ext.data.JsonP.request(), You can however use Ajax to make a post if i'm not mistaken. This comes in handy when uploading something like a base64 string (which is too big for a GET request)

Check HTTP request against reliable server

In my android app i keep getting timeouts in the messages between the app and my server.
In an attempt to see if the problem is in the app or my server,
i want to try and Send an HTTP request from my app to
some other server i am sure is up and reliable and then see if i get timeouts.
Is there any server address i can check against?
Thanks in advance!
BTW : i am using a glass Fish servlet for my server

We've successfully sent a simple HTTP GET to google.com -- with a couple of fall-backs (I've also seen internic.org used) in the past, in similar cases.
