ERROR SEOChecker.Core.Helpers.Request - [Thread 14] SEOChecker: Error could not load url http://mywebsite.com/umbraco/dialogs/preview.aspx?id=1106
System.Net.WebException: The remote server returned an error: (401) Unauthorized.
The site is behind basic authentication, is that what is causing this error? If so, is there a way around this?
Not offically supported yet but what you could try is set the following app keys in your web.config file.
SEOCheckerConnectAsUmbracoMember (true/false) Indicates that it's a protected site
SEOCheckerUmbracoMemberName (User name)
SEOCheckerUmbracoMemberPassword (Password)
Thanks again, but I think we may be mixed up - I'm talking about IIS Basic Authentication on the whole website rather than using the Umbraco protected nodes feature.
Can you confirm that SEO Checker works if the entire site is locked down under IIS Basic Authentication?
It's an unsupported feature so no guarantees yet. Make sure you use the latest version and use the credentials you ahve configured for basic authentication.
Basic Auth
Hey
I am seeing the following error in the logs:

Hi Lewis,

Hope this helps,

Thanks for the info Richard.
Just to be clear, although the app keys say UmbracoMember, are they actually referring to Umbraco Users?
On an Umbraco user, there are Username, Login, and Password fields - so should the mapping be as follows:
SEOCheckerUmbracoMemberName : Username (definitely not Login?)
SEOCheckerUmbracoMemberPassword : Password
I have tried a combination of these but no luck so far.
Thanks, Lewis
Hi Lewis,
No it's Umbraco members, it should be login and password indeed. I had a customer with protected nodes and simple authentication there it worked.
Hope this helps,
