Embedded images show as attachment - mandrill

I'm sending mail via mandrill smtp server.
The embedded images shows up as attachments.
When using another smtp host they are displayed inline as expected.
This is how the raw email sent via mandrill looks like,
--_av-wPsilWaNBD9LTkJ6pVYNCQ
Content-Type: application/octet-stream
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="header.jpg"
And that same email sent via my other smtp server,
------=_Part_2_149158871.1452888744955
Content-Type: application/octet-stream; name=header.jpg
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Disposition: inline; filename=header.jpg
Content-ID: <1.1452888744955#10.0.1.2>
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? Or is this not possible with mandrill?
Mails are sent from a java application using javax.

Rails content-type not staying set. SparkPost?

I am sending out an email with actionmailer through SparkPost. I have set the content-type the following ways:
in action model:
default content_type: 'text/html'
and in the model action:
headers['Content-Type'] = 'text/html'
I suspect that isn't the problem because when I send the email in development to mailcatcher it keeps the content-type and displays properly.
Even watching the production.log when it sends the email shows it sending it
Subject: Equipment Training for June
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/html;
charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
But when it arrives the message has been converted to:
Content-Type: text/plain;
I have tried receiving it with both gmail and office.com emails.
Almost forgot, for some reason it isn't happening on other mailers from the app which is why I initially thought it was a rails issue.
I figured it out, Sparkpost appears to convert html only emails to plain styling so that everyone will get it. I didn't have a .text.haml version of my mailer so it wasn't sending the email as a
Content-Type: multipart/alternative
Once I added that then Sparkpost would allow the multi-content to get through.

problems with Cross Origin Resource Sharing: both OSX Safari and iOS Safari fail after preflight request

Recently I come into a trouble with CORS(Cross Origin Resource Sharing) request on Safari, both OSX and iOS, while the same request works perfectly on Chrome and Firefox. I follow the documentation of W3C and handle preflight request on server side, my response is like:
HTTP/1.0 200 OK
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: http://192.168.1.96:4399
Access-Control-Allow-Methods: POST
Access-Control-Allow-Methods: GET
Access-Control-Allow-Methods: OPTIONS
Access-Control-Allow-Headers: Origin
Access-Control-Allow-Headers: Authorization
Access-Control-Allow-Headers: X-Requested-With
Access-Control-Allow-Headers: Accept
Access-Control-Allow-Headers: Access-Control-Request-Method
Access-Control-Allow-Headers: Access-Control-Request-Headers
Access-Control-Allow-Headers: DNT
Access-Control-Allow-Headers: X-CustomHeader
Access-Control-Allow-Headers: Content-Type
Access-Control-Max-Age: 0

Origin: http://192.168.1.96:4399
Access-Control-Expose-Headers: Origin
Content-Encoding: gzip
Transfer-Encoding: chunked
Such response works fine on Chrome, Firefox, and Android Browser: a POST request is sent right after the preflight request. But on Safari, after server response the reflight request, I got such error message from console:
Failed to load resource: The network connection was lost.
I inspect the preflight response from server, but find it the same as above... After searching and trying so many times, I still can't make it work :-(
Is there anybody that come across the problem before? Could anyone figure out what mistake I've made?
Thanks very much in advance!
It's all about Safari add origin to OPTIONS request header Access-Control-Request-Headers.
So to fix it you should enable this header in Access-Control-Allow-Headers in response.
PS: see similar question CORS request not working in Safari

HTTP digest authentication fail due to wrong nonce-count in iOS 10

HTTP digest authentication no longer works in our app since iOS 10 due to wrong nonce-count in Authorization: Digest header generated by NSURLSession.
The same code works in iOS 9, but fail to auth in iOS 10
Create a POST request with NSURLRequest
Fire it with NSURLSession
Handle NSURLAuthenticationMethodHTTPDigest in urlSession(_:didReceive:completionHandler:) delegate
The server responds with a 401 and qop="auth" string as expected
The app requests again with the Authorization: Digest header set.
According to RFC2617:
nonce-count
This MUST be specified if a qop directive is sent (see above), and
MUST NOT be specified if the server did not send a qop directive in
the WWW-Authenticate header field. The nc-value is the hexadecimal
count of the number of requests (including the current request)
that the client has sent with the nonce value in this request. For
example, in the first request sent in response to a given nonce
value, the client sends "nc=00000001". The purpose of this
directive is to allow the server to detect request replays by
maintaining its own copy of this count - if the same nc-value is
seen twice, then the request is a replay. See the description
below of the construction of the request-digest value.
However, the nonce-count start at "nc=00000002" even for the first request in iOS 10, which cause the server to reject it.
Expect server response 200 OK

Is anyone facing the same issue?
The only related post I could find is:
Apple Developer Forums : Problem of the digest authentication, but no further information.
How do you fix it or get workaround on client app side without asking server side to ignore the wrong nonce-count?
Thanks.
Apple Developer Technical Support confirm that is a bug of iOS 10.
Hope it will be fixed soon.
Thank you for contacting Apple Developer Technical Support (DTS).
We believe this issue is a bug. Please file a bug report using the Bug Reporter tool https://developer.apple.com/bug-reporting/.
Update:
Apple fixed this issue in iOS 10.2 Beta 3
Chances are, the OS is sending a HEAD request first, and your server-side code isn't getting it. I would try running Charles Proxy to verify that this is what's happening.
That said, skipping a nonce count is not inherently an indication of any sort of attack. It could occur even in iOS 9 if a request got lost somehow (e.g. a network error). What's important is to ensure that the count doesn't go backwards. So I would argue that your server code is buggy and should not be rejecting that to begin with.
We have the same problem in our company as described here:
Cordova app can't connect with Dynamics NAV Web-Service (ODATA) after update to iOS 10
We can reproduce the issue both in our App and the Safari Browser with iOS 10 devices. There does not seem to be a simple client side workaround. We opened a Bug Report with Apple.
In our case the problem was solved with the 10.2 Beta release.

How to share image to Path.com for iOS

I try the guide here: Path Developers Docs
I can get access token from Path API.
But I can not send post photo request "POST /1/moment/photo".
Does anyone can do it?
I used gtw-oauth2 to get access token from Path API.
If you see the request format
POST /oauth2/access_token HTTP/1.1
Host: partner.path.com
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Content-Length: <LENGTH>
grant_type=authorization_code&client_id=CLIENT&client_secret=SECRET&code=CODE
Content-Length line is not required, in getting permanent access token
code=CODE - was very confusing, and i see you can get temporary access token, but can't get permanent access token, in this line, capital CODE MUST BE REPLACED WITH TEMPORARY ACCESS TOKEN
don't change grant_type=authorization_code only
I think this will help you a lot
POST /oauth2/access_token HTTP/1.1
Host: partner.path.com
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Content-Length:
grant_type=authorization_code&client_id=CLIENT&client_secret=SECRET&code=CODE

AFNetworking - 401 response from https server (login action)

I know that this problem may be api specified but really need to try.
I have to requests. One made with ASIHTTP and the other one with AFNetworking. Server denies afnetworking with 401 code.
I have to adjust afnetworking to the working state, and have in mind that changes at the server side are impossible atm.
ASIHTTP (working one)

There were some other headers but they were identical so I removed for simplicity. What could cause rejecting here? user-agent? Doubt that. What about Connection and Proxy-Connection? Can i change it to close in AFN?
401 is the HTTP status code "Unauthorized", which is sent back from the server when the provided credentials are invalid (incorrect username / password). Check that you're sending the correct information.
Also, JSON serialization is provided automatically when AFHTTPClient is configured correctly. See the example app in the AFNetworking repository to see how that is done.
