No server name is shown when localhost proxy is used

Reported by petr.ple...@gmail.com, Jul 6 2016

Issue description

Chrome Version       :  51.0.2704.106 m

Other browsers tested:
     Safari: -
    Firefox: -
         IE: OK in IE11
     Chrome: OK in 49

What steps will reproduce the problem?

Dear Chrome team,

I use Chrome for SAP Web IDE development. This is a web-based tool for frontent development. There is an option to test applications locally. When I run apps the browser tries to retrieve  backend data from the localhost. 

To proxy requests to the real server we customize local web-server to redirect those requests outside.

While sending such requests we are asked to be authenticated, however there is a problem now.

What is the expected result?

Initially up to v49 it provided the real backend server name and we could easily define which server are we redirected to and input the correct password for a certain system

It works OK now in IE11.

What happens instead?

However since v50 the browser displays just the localhost and port hiding the real server name. That makes logon process really difficult. As we use many different systems I always input a wrong password as I can't figure out which system I should log in.


Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if
possible.


Please check out the attached video files. They demonstrate exactly the issue we fight with.

Thanks!

You can see from the snapshots what I mean. It works OK in IE and Firefox but Chrome fails.

Adding proper label for respective team to help in triaging this better.

petr.plenkov@: Would it be possible to help with any test app or test page to try a repro of this from our end.
I will try to find the way to do this.

So guys, to test the issue you can try the following link:

https://flpportal-s0015958849trial.dispatcher.hanatrial.ondemand.com/sites?siteId=2eaf1639-6b23-440c-bb28-b8bef45fccf4#proxy-Display

This is a HANA Cloud based app. All that you need is to register there first with your email. After confirmation the registration you can open the deployed apllication.

It tries to read data from the remote server. However it's impossible to figure out in Chrome which server are we asked to sign in. By deafult it writes current host but in fact we expect to have there another ES4 server name

I tested it in IE11 and it works fine as expected. So this is about the proxy - not just  about the localhost.

Thanks for the report.

The realm string was removed from the auth dialog in Chrome, which is why you no longer see that message. See:
