I am getting the following error when I try to call my service

I verified the username and password and they seem to be correct. I am clueless about why it returns an authentication failure. Any leads would be helpful.Thanks.

Check if the time out is enough for the connection. Set it to 0.

HTTPClientPolicy policy = new HTTPClientPolicy();
policy.setReceiveTimeout(0);
//and or 
policy.setConnectionTimeout(0);
