And hello once more.
It seems I had problems with the HTTP headers. Raising the maximum Size in Apache,
Tomcat and the jk-worker (yes, all three) helped to solve my problem.
This is just an information for the next person that encounters a similar issue.

Betreff: Re: [xwiki-users] AJAX requests don't finish / 401 Error
Hello again.
I had a look at the http headers both sent and received with the tool
"LiveHttpHeaders" and found out, that indeed every GET-request is answered with
a 401 ("Forbidden"), then resent with an "Authorization" field and
answered with a 200 ("OK").
So the problem does not seem to be in my setup and/or Kerberos, but maybe in the xwiki
itself?
What can I do to make xwiki show the correct result for AJAX requests?

Hello.
In short: Ajax requests like loading the attachment section, showing
the user list or autocompleting searches don't work in my wiki. I see
only the loading bar/circle and nothing else happens.
When watching with Firebug, I realise there are two identical requests
each, both with "401: Forbidden". The weird thing is, that the
finished/aborted request got a result, but the wiki doesn't show it.
The double-request is due to (I think) the Kerberos SSO, since the
common way to authenticate seems to be to submit a request without
credentials first, waiting for a
401 and then requesting again, this time with credentials.
Fun fact: if i right-click the url in Firebug and choose "open in new
tab", i get the correct resultset.
A screenshot of the Firebug console can be found here:

My setup:
Apache that authenticates via Kerberos (and AD), then transfers to
tomcat where the user is logged into the xwiki 3.1.4 automatically (this works).
The wiki worked fine when I used NTLM authentication (wich only
authenticates once per session, not for each HTTP-request)
Did anyone encounter similar problems and is able to help me with this?
Also, feel free to ask if you need more information.
