      Description

      When trying to add an alfresco resource, the login window just reappears every time a username/password has been submitted.

      The alfresco log says:
      "GET /alfresco/api/AuthenticationService?wsdl HTTP/1.1" 401 3466

      When accessing /alfresco/api/AuthenticationService?wsdl through a browser the server ask for username and password for a tenant named 'AuthenticationService' That tenant does of course not exist, so a 401 is returned even if valid credentials are entered.

      Seems like the SOAP Web Services used by Moodle have been deprecated in Alfresco 4.2.d.

      I have tried with Alfresco 4.2.d and 4.2.e on an Ubuntu 12.04 server. Have tried both the standard install and various manual installs, but the result is always the same.
