ok, thanks

I try now with JWebUnit. Maybe this works :P If anybody has an idea, why the program above doesn't work, please let me know.

Thank you
Stefan

In addition:

my plan is not to test a website. I have to write an automation for creating some entries on this website.

Thanks for your fast response!

The other tool would be a possibility. But the problem is shown at this piece of code:
//checks whether the page is doing a redirect (thats normal when successful logged in or log in failed) if((statuscode == HttpStatus.SC_MOVED_TEMPORARILY) || (statuscode == HttpStatus.SC_MOVED_PERMANENTLY) || (statuscode == HttpStatus.SC_SEE_OTHER) || (statuscode == HttpStatus.SC_TEMPORARY_REDIRECT)) { Header header = post.getResponseHeader("location"); if (header != null) { String newuri = header.getValue(); if ((newuri == null) || (newuri.equals(""))) { newuri = "/"; } System.out.println("Redirect target: " + newuri); GetMethod redirect = new GetMethod(newuri); client.executeMethod(redirect); System.out.println("Redirect: " + redirect.getStatusLine().toString()); // release any connection resources used by the method redirect.releaseConnection(); this.out(newuri); //I forgott this to add, here is the problem shown } else{ System.out.println("Invalid redirect"); System.exit(1); } }

That means that everything seems to be ok. But if I call the page, to which the program was redirected, it tells me, that it is at the log in page and on the log in page is a comment

Your login has failed. Please try again.

I think it could be because of the cookiehandling, but it's only a guess.

If I would change the tool to one of yours, could you give me a good tutorial or a hint how I should start?

Thanks in advantage

Hi all,

I've got a really big problem. It's about to logging into a https-website with HttpClient.

Here is the site : https://www-930.ibm.com/support/esc/signin.jsp

I've also prepared a testaccount for you to test, whether your ideas work or not.
Username:

The task is to log in to the site and then work automatically on this page. But it fails at the login, the working process shouldn't be the greatest problem (I hope so).

So here is my code:
import java.net.URLEncoder; import org.apache.commons.httpclient.*; import org.apache.commons.httpclient.methods.GetMethod; import org.apache.commons.httpclient.methods.PostMethod; import org.apache.commons.httpclient.cookie.*; public class Webrobbi { private HttpClient client; //set all informations Live-Http-Headers from Mozilla shows public void setHeader(HttpMethod m){ m.setRequestHeader("User-Agent", "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de; rv:1.9.1.3) Gecko/20090824 (CK-IBM) Firefox/3.5.3"); m.setRequestHeader("Accept","text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8"); m.setRequestHeader("Accept-Language","de-de,de;q=0.8,en-us;q=0.5,en;q=0.3"); m.setRequestHeader("Accept-Encoding","gzip,deflate"); m.setRequestHeader("Accept-Charset","ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7"); m.setRequestHeader("Keep-Alive","300"); m.setRequestHeader("Connection","keep-alive"); m.setRequestHeader("Referer","https://www-930.ibm.com/support/esc/signin.jsp"); } public void login(){ try{ String host = "www-930.ibm.com"; String protocol = "https"; String signIn = "/support/esc/signin.jsp"; String check = "/support/esc/j_security_check"; String home = "/support/esc/home.jsp"; //is for working with it later client = new HttpClient(); client.getHostConfiguration().setHost(host, 443, protocol); //get the logging in page to get cookies GetMethod get = new GetMethod(signIn); this.setHeader(get); get.getParams().setCookiePolicy(CookiePolicy.BROWSER_COMPATIBILITY); client.executeMethod(get); get.releaseConnection(); System.out.println("Login form get: " + get.getStatusLine().toString()); //checks for cookies and get them Cookie[] cookies = client.getState().getCookies(); for (int i = 0; i < cookies.length; i++) { Cookie cookie = cookies[i]; System.out.println( "Cookie: " + cookie.getName() + ", Value: " + cookie.getValue() + ", IsPersistent?: " + cookie.isPersistent() + ", Expiry Date: " + cookie.getExpiryDate() + ", Comment: " + cookie.getComment()); } //the posting method for logging in PostMethod post = new PostMethod(check); post.getParams().setCookiePolicy(CookiePolicy.BROWSER_COMPATIBILITY); this.setHeader(post); NameValuePair username = new NameValuePair("j_username", URLEncoder.encode("1337iceskater@arcor.de", "UTF-8")); NameValuePair pw = new NameValuePair("j_password", URLEncoder.encode("1337ic3skat3r", "UTF-8")); NameValuePair x = new NameValuePair("x", "40"); NameValuePair y = new NameValuePair("y", "20"); post.setRequestBody(new NameValuePair[]{username, pw, x, y}); client.executeMethod(post); post.releaseConnection(); System.out.println("Login form post: " + post.getStatusLine().toString()); //check for cookies and get them cookies = client.getState().getCookies(); System.out.println("Logon cookies:"); for (int i = 0; i < cookies.length; i++) { Cookie cookie = cookies[i]; System.out.println( "Cookie: " + cookie.getName() + ", Value: " + cookie.getValue() + ", IsPersistent?: " + cookie.isPersistent() + ", Expiry Date: " + cookie.getExpiryDate() + ", Comment: " + cookie.getComment()); } int statuscode = post.getStatusCode(); //checks whether the page is doing a redirect (thats normal when successful logged in or log in failed) if((statuscode == HttpStatus.SC_MOVED_TEMPORARILY) || (statuscode == HttpStatus.SC_MOVED_PERMANENTLY) || (statuscode == HttpStatus.SC_SEE_OTHER) || (statuscode == HttpStatus.SC_TEMPORARY_REDIRECT)) { Header header = post.getResponseHeader("location"); if (header != null) { String newuri = header.getValue(); if ((newuri == null) || (newuri.equals(""))) { newuri = "/"; } System.out.println("Redirect target: " + newuri); GetMethod redirect = new GetMethod(newuri); client.executeMethod(redirect); System.out.println("Redirect: " + redirect.getStatusLine().toString()); // release any connection resources used by the method redirect.releaseConnection(); } else{ System.out.println("Invalid redirect"); System.exit(1); } } } catch(Exception e){ e.printStackTrace(); } } //prints the htmlcode of the site "uri" public void out(String uri){ try{ GetMethod profile = new GetMethod(uri); this.setHeader(profile); profile.getParams().setCookiePolicy(CookiePolicy.BROWSER_COMPATIBILITY); this.client.executeMethod(profile); String siteStream = profile.getResponseBodyAsString(); System.out.println(siteStream); } catch(Exception e){ e.printStackTrace(); } } public static void main(String[] args){ Webrobbi wr = new Webrobbi(); wr.login(); } }

I hope you have an idea and/or a solution for my problem =)

Thanks in advantage
