Oh, the dreaded matching Cookies when calling a post to a site that's
looking for them. Unfortunately, I've fallen into this trap and need
a little help getting out - maybe with a few pointers somewhere,
whatever.
Okay, first off - yes, I've read the documentation for newbies, the
quick start and have even dug into the src code for HttpClient - hell,
I even overloaded a few of the classes (CookieSpec and Cookie) to get
my call to recognize the cookies being set. It's all been for naught
- sort of...
Here's the gist of the problem:
Cookies are not enabled on your browser. Please adjust this in your
security preferences before continuing
yep - that's what I get back no matter what I do now. yes, I make
sure the cookies look like a valid session from a browser. I've gone
into firefox and pulled out all the cookies made for this domain - and
mimic'd each and every one.
Yes, I've tried emulating different Browsers. My current one is set
to Mozilla 5.0.
I've gotten rid of the dread httpOnly tag by re-writing the
CookieSpecBase class to ignore this parameter. From what I can tell,
the site only sends it - it never tries to recover it - and the cookie
itself doesn't even seem to store it as an attribute of the session.
So, has anyone else seen this message - or could maybe direct me to
possible solutions?
The next thing I'm going to try is to attach a mechanism to watch how
the cookie is formatted coming down and installed on a browser and see
if it differs much from mine - and - vice versa - how the cookie looks
going up and seeing if I match it.
many, many thanx for reading my partial rant/ plea for help!
;-)
peace. JOe...
