Re: [Resteasy-users] POST method always returns "Error status 401 Unauthorized"

[Nuwan B. <mai...@gm...>]

Thanks for all the responses. Much appreciated.

I executed the same code I've posted in the question from my home network
(no firewall) and I was able to reach the server. However when I use the
same code from the office networks I still get the 401 issue. This
indicates that office firewall/network has some sort of restriction that
does not allow me to call the 3rd party web service URL. Assuming this is
the reason for the issue I'm working with the office network guys to solve
it. Hope this will fix the issue.
