Authorization header for graphite backend not being sent by the renderer

[abhinav-upadhyay]

Hi,

I am seeing a 401 error when the browser is trying to send a POST request to <graphite-host>/render. There is no authorization header being sent when making the request as well. I have already added the required CORS headers in the graphite hosts's apache config. Is this a known issue?

what kind of authorization header should be sent? not sure what you mean. for me it "just works"

If I understand correctly, an Authorization: Basic XXXX header should be sent with the POST request using the username and password from the graph-explorer config.cfg. I believe I'm running into the same issue.

after merging #118 is this still a problem?

Hi. I have same issue with latest release. In firebug i can see 401 on rander call from browser to graphite. If i add username:password@ to client_url i catch CORS error. Only if i disable basic auth completely it works as expected.
