WebSphere Docker OAuth

I need to implement OAuth against an IBM WebSphere server. For that purpose I built a docker environment https://github.com/hhoechtl/websphere-oauth according to http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/websphere/techjournal/1305_odonnell2/1305_odonnell2.html

But if I try to get a token

curl -X POST -H "Accept-Charset: UTF-8" -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" -d 'grant_type=password&client_id=LibertyRocks&client_secret=AndMakesConfigurationEasy&username=admin&password=admin' "https://192.168.99.100:9443/oauth2/endpoint/DemoProvider/token"

I get the error 

{
  "error_description": "CWWKS1406E: The token request had an invalid client credential. The request URI was /oauth2/endpoint/DemoProvider/token.",
  "error": "invalid_client"
}

But according to my server.xml that should be correct. What am I missing?

Solution

  • The next day it just worked, no idea why.
