[New-bugs-announce] [issue19402] AbstractBasicAuthHandler

[Perry Lorier]

New submission from Perry Lorier:

Similar to Issue8797, if the first 5 requests result in exception (eg 404), then AbstractBasicAuthHandler.retried is not reset, meaning authentication will fail on all subsequent attempts.

The logic in AbstractBasicAuthHandler.http_error_401 calling self.reset_retry_count() needs to be fixed, possibly moving it up before the call to http_error_auth_reqed()
