TAP questions

[Dobos, László]

Hi everyone,

I've found the problematic endpoint and it's not CADC but this one:

https://vo.phys.au.dk/__system__/tap/run/tap/

I'm getting responses like the following.

POST http://vo.phys.au.dk/__system__/tap/run/tap/async/FVOrjC/phase HTTP/1.1
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Host: vo.phys.au.dk
Content-Length: 9
Expect: 100-continue
Connection: Keep-Alive

PHASE=RUN

HTTP/1.0 302 Found
Location: https://vo.phys.au.dk/__system__/tap/run/tap/async/FVOrjC/phase

I'm also having issues with HEASARC:

Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Host: heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov

On the issue of switching protocols between http and https, I am pretty sure that CADC services don't do that and I completely agree that it is wrong at a web service layer level to do that. We do run under both protocols (although https always requires client certificate to authenticate) but we have a lot of tests to verify that all protocols and authentication methods work correctly. However, there are always people mucking with web server config and sticking up load balancers and firewalls so it is possible that some sequence or endpoint could be misbehaving. If you can send me an example I will fix it.
