Getting 400 error when running basic auth test on apphost - servicestack

Question

I have an apphost
public class LocalTestAppHost : AppSelfHostBase
{
public LocalTestAppHost() : base(nameof(LocalTestAppHost), typeof(MyServices).Assembly, typeof(LocalTestAppHost).Assembly) { }
public override void Configure(Container container)
{
var builder = new ConfigurationBuilder()
.SetBasePath(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory())
// .AddJsonFile("appSettings.json")
.AddEnvironmentVariables()
.AddUserSecrets(typeof(IntegrationTest).Assembly);
var configuration = builder.Build();
AppSettings = new NetCoreAppSettings(configuration);
container.AddSingleton<IAppSettings>(AppSettings);
SetConfig(new HostConfig
{
AddRedirectParamsToQueryString = true,
DebugMode = true
});
Plugins.Add(new CorsFeature(allowOriginWhitelist: new[] { IntegrationTestBase.BaseUriLocalDev },
allowedMethods: "GET, PATCH, POST, PUT, DELETE, OPTIONS",
allowCredentials: true,
allowedHeaders: "Content-Type, Allow, Authorization"));
JsConfig.DateHandler = DateHandler.ISO8601;
var connectionString = AppSettings.GetString("DefaultConnection");
OrmLiteConfig.StripUpperInLike = false;
container.AddSingleton<IDbConnectionFactory>(new OrmLiteConnectionFactory(connectionString, PostgreSqlDialect.Provider));
container.AddSingleton<IAuthRepository>(c =>
new OrmLiteAuthRepository<UserAuthCustom, UserAuthDetails>(c.Resolve<IDbConnectionFactory>())
{
UseDistinctRoleTables = true
});
Plugins.Add(new AuthFeature(() => new CustomUserSession(),
new IAuthProvider[] {
new CredentialsAuthProvider(AppSettings)
{
}, /* Sign In with Username / Password credentials */
}));
Plugins.Add(new AdminUsersFeature());
}
}
And I am trying to run simple test where I log in (using existing connection to my local db)
public class ReportTests : IntegrationTestBase
{
private string _adminUser;
private string _adminPass;
public ReportTests()
{
Licensing.RegisterLicense(Licence);
this.AppHost = new LocalTestAppHost()
.Init()
.Start(BaseUriLocalDev);
Settings = AppHost.Resolve<IAppSettings>();
Db = AppHost.Resolve<IDbConnectionFactory>().OpenDbConnection();
_adminUser = Settings.GetString("adminUser");
_adminPass = Settings.GetString("adminPass");
}
[Test]
public void TestStats()
{
var users = Db.Select<UserAuthCustom>();
var client = new JsonServiceClient(BaseUriLocalDev);
var authReq = new Authenticate()
{
UserName = _adminUser,
Password = _adminPass,
provider = CredentialsAuthProvider.Name
};
var resp = client.Post(authReq);
}
But it throws this exception:
System.Net.WebException: Received an invalid status line: '400'.

I am struggling to figure why it is not working and why it is not receiving a valid response from the apphost.
As the apphost only runs for scope of test I am finding it hard to debug. It seems like everything is correct but I am getting invalid response.
Stepping through code it is client.GetResponse(); that throws the exception, I guess it is getting unexpected format but I cannot see a way to get raw response in debugger.
Any ideas where I am going wrong?
EDIT
It happens also on hello world endpoint so I guess the AppHost is not running. I have tried changing the port but doesn't help. I upgraded to 5.13.3 recently, not sure if that's relevant.
EDIT
With debugger active this is logged:
DEBUG: CreateRequestAsync/requestParams:
WARN: Could not Set-Cookie 'ss-id': Could not load type 'Microsoft.Extensions.Primitives.InplaceStringBuilder' from assembly 'Microsoft.Extensions.Primitives, Version=6.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=adb9793829ddae60'., Exception: Could not load type 'Microsoft.Extensions.Primitives.InplaceStringBuilder' from assembly 'Microsoft.Extensions.Primitives, Version=6.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=adb9793829ddae60'.

You can try enabling debug logging in your AppHost to see if logs any info:
LogManager.LogFactory = new ConsoleLogFactory(debugEnabled:true);
Don't forget your Integration test needs to dispose the AppHost after it's run or other integration tests will fail:
[OneTimeTearDown]
public void OneTimeTearDown() => AppHost.Dispose();
One way to view the response is run your AppHost for a long time then you can view the output by inspecting the HTTP Request externally, e.g. via Chrome's WebInspector or curl:
[Test]
public void Run_for_30secs()
{
Thread.Sleep(30000);
}
It sounds like the AppHost isn't properly running, so I'd comment/disable features until you can isolate the problem.
Note: CORS isn't relevant in an integration test, it's only relevant when called from a Web browser making cross-domain requests.
