Version: (using Devel) OS: Linux Installed from: Compiled sources Steps to reproduce: 1. Open a website that requires authentication (I only tried with basic authentication) 2a. Enter a username, but not password 2b. Enter nothing 3. Konqueror shows a white page and the icon in the upper right keeps spinning Expected behaviour: kio_http tries to authenticate without a password and shows me an error that it couldn't authenticate, then it goes on to ask for credentials again. I found this while testing a bug in kpasswdserver (unrelated). I think this bug is in the kioslave but I'm not sure as it might be kpasswdserver/slavebase as well. However other kioslaves don't have this bug (tried ftp and sftp).
SVN commit 1117956 by adawit: - Do not make an exception for an empty username string when deciding to show an error dialog. There is nothing special about empty username strings even for protocols like ftp that support anonymous logins.
