For RESTXQ auth its unclear to me what the entry is to preserve older versions of basex auth. Thank!
see...
- Authentication was readded to RESTXQ. As a consequence, you need to specify the
admin user in your web.xml file if you want to preserve the behavior of older versions of BaseX. - In turn, if users are defined in the
web.xml file, no passwords must be specified anymore. - The server-side authentication method, and default users, are now enforced and cannot be overwritten by client.
