Http Auth with rclone

Help and Support

What is the problem you are having with rclone?

I am running into 401/403 errors while trying to copy a remote destination to a local one via SFTP. This has happened only recently and with 5 mirrors, all yield the same results.

2023/10/28 23:39:09 ERROR : : error listing: error listing "": failed to readDir: HTTP Error: 401 Unauthorized
2023/10/28 23:39:09 Failed to lsd with 2 errors: last error was: error listing "": failed to readDir: HTTP Error: 401 Unauthorized```

```curl -u username:password http://xx.xxx.xx.xx:12345/data/LinuxISOs/``` returns this pastebin,

And rclone lsd --http-url http://username:password@xx.xxx.xx.xx:12345/data/ :http:

This was working fine up until recently yet I can still reach it via a web browser and tried different locations, so it's not IP related.

Where did you get http_opts, user, pass flags from? It is not something documented in HTTP remote doc...

Change it to:

[iso_server]
type = http
url = http://user:password@xx.xx.xxx.xx:12345

and try rclone lsd iso_server:data again
