Robert,
It is a known problem with HttpClient 2.0. There are three possibilities: (1) Use HttpClient 3.0, which provides fine-grained control over protocol compliance leniency. (2) Disable auto redirect and handle redirects manually http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient/redirects.html (3) Override HttpMethodBase#addCookieRequestHeader() method protected void addCookieRequestHeader( HttpState state, HttpConnection conn) throws IOException, HttpException { // Clean up the cookie headers removeRequestHeader("cookie"); CookieSpec matcher = CookiePolicy.getSpecByPolicy(state.getCookiePolicy()); Cookie[] cookies = matcher.match(conn.getHost(), conn.getPort(), getPath(), conn.isSecure(), state.getCookies()); if ((cookies != null) && (cookies.length > 0)) { getRequestHeaderGroup().addHeader( matcher.formatCookieHeader(cookies)); } } Hope this helps Oleg On Tue, 2004-09-21 at 12:10, Robert Gold wrote: > Hi, > I am using http-client 2.0.1 (1 August 2004). > I noticed that lots of websites just accept the cookies to be sent in one > single line (like sent by IE).
