* For requests:
- reuse the original QNetworkRequest, so headers and attributes
are the same as in the original request
- determine the original http method from the reply and the request
attributes
- keep the original request body around such that it can be sent
again in case the request is redirected
* Simplify the interface that is used for creating new requests in
AbstractNetworkJob.
By default, followRedirects is true for all requests, to transparently
handle redirections. In the wizard, we have special redirect-handling
code though and that was being skipped.
Setting the flag to false allows the wizard to be aware of redirects
and to handle them in the correct way. Tested with the server described
in
https://github.com/owncloud/administration/tree/master/redirectServer
There's a second bug here, where followRedirects always converts
redirected requests to the GET verb. That means redirected PROPFINDs
will never have worked. This change un-breaks them for the wizard only.
There should be no case that previously worked that stops working now.
This is a move away from the original policy where jobs
would only follow redirects in special cases.
Two restrictions are in place:
1. We do not allow protocol downgrades (https -> http)
2. We stop redirects after we find them looping (e.g. old = new url, or
indirectly when looping 10 times).
This is closer to RFC conforming behavior, although currently
we will treat 301 replies like they were 302. This is for a separate
commit.
Error handling (and display) also needs improvement.
Addresses #2791
Soldiering on with a broken or incomplete response could lead to
incorrect sync behavior.
Since discovery uses LsCol jobs which already handle errors
correctly, this should not have a significant impact.
The proxyAuthenticationRequired() signal now goes to the
ProxyAuthHandler class. That class will try to read the proxy settings
from the keychain or ask the user about them.
We won't ask the user for credentials for explicitly configured proxies.
It also does not change how the credentials for explicitly configured
proxies are stored. (see #261)
