'Application reported internal error, closing connection'

Hi to all.
I'm trying to POST data to libmicrohttpd with digest authentication enabled.
The data looks like this:
POST /ajax/response.html HTTP/1.1
Accept: */*
Accept-Encoding: identity
Host: xxxx.ddns.net
User-Agent: NB-IoT-Client/1.0.0 (Arduino/MKR-NB-1500)
Connection: close
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8
Content-Length: 151
OnIoTData=iotdata&prepare=no&title=iotdata&IMEI=352753096142722&Address=10.193.202.150&Timestamp=315964938&Datetime=1980-01-06T00:02:18+00:00&Data=null
The data is received via libmicrohttpd and forwarded to my application
as long as no authentication is used.
When using digest authentication the connection is closed with an
internal error callback message 'Application reported internal error,
closing connection'.
With a GET request everything works fine:
The first request is answered with 'Unauthorized' and my client response
with the correct digest in the second request and receives a valid response.
I'm not quite sure where to look after this issue. Is this an issue in
my framework or ist there an issue in libmicrohttpd?
Any ideas are appeciated....
Thanks in advance,
Dirk.

It sounds to me like you are returning 'MHD_NO' from your callback
instead of MHD_YES. Why I cannot say without seeing your code, but you
are most certainly using the API wrong. Did you look at the example in
src/examples/digest_auth_example.c?

Hi,
I've now cross-comiled GnuTLS and all of it's dependant libraries eg
libnettle, libhogweed, libgmp.
I now need to build libmicrohttpd and link it to my GnuTLS.
I run the following configure command
_./configure --host=arm-none-linux-gnueabi --enable-https=yes
--with-gnutls=/mnt/hgfs/Projects/GnuTLS/gnutls-3.6.15_
but I get the attached config log and this failure message
_checking how to find GnuTLS library...
-I/mnt/hgfs/Projects/GnuTLS/gnutls-3.6.15/include
-L/mnt/hgfs/Projects/GnuTLS/gnutls-3.6.15/lib -lgnutls_
_checking for gnutls/gnutls.h... yes_
_checking for gnutls_priority_set in -lgnutls... no_
_configure: error: can't find usable libgnutls at specified prefix
/mnt/hgfs/Projects/GnuTLS/gnutls-3.6.15_
Any suggestions at this point would be very helpful.
Regards
David

Hi David,
How to cross-compile GnuTLS is a question better suited for the GnuTLS
mailinglist ;-).
Good luck!
Happy hacking!

Hi,
To get MHD working with HTTPS on my embedded system, I need to link
libmicrohttpd with GnuTLS, so I need to cross compile GnuTLS.
When I run configure for GnuTLS, I get "libNettle 3.4.1 was not found".
I downloaded the source for libNettle 3.4.1 and built this, but when I
re-configure GnuTLS with libNettle, I stilll get "libNettle 3.4.1 was
not found"
Reading up on this it seems I might also need to build libHogweed and
libGMP libraries.
Has anyone out there cross compiled all of these libraries and can help
me to get all of these downloads and steps correct, so I can build an
HTTPS-enabled MHD?
Many thanks
David
