I posted before but now I seem to actually see the problem, just having trouble fixing it.

I am trying to login to my schools grade website, maybe even make an app for it later, and when I use Chrome to inspect the cookies being created, I get all these,

Cookie:appName=chippewa_falls; tool=""; selection=""; districtID=1; endYear=2011; calendarID=0; permCalendarID=0; JSESSIONID=BE5AEF51EAA72975150FC2D0F77DDE13

But when my program prints all the cookies it received, I only get this

  • [version: 0][name: JSESSIONID][value: BC1BAA33BEB23DC27B7883AC24934A1D][domain: campus.chipfalls.k12.wi.us][path: /campus][expiry: null]

here is my code, 

public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {


    DefaultHttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
    HttpGet httpget = new HttpGet("https://campus.chipfalls.k12.wi.us/campus/portal/chippewa_falls.jsp");
    httpget.addHeader("Referer", "http://cfsd.chipfalls.k12.wi.us//high/");
    HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httpget);
    HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();

    System.out.println("Login form get: " + response.getStatusLine());
    if (entity != null) {
        InputStream input = entity.getContent();
        BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(input));
        String ln = "";
        while((ln = reader.readLine()) != null) {
            System.out.println("During Get - " + ln);
        }
    }
    System.out.println("Initial set of cookies:");
    List<Cookie> cookies = httpclient.getCookieStore().getCookies();

    if (cookies.isEmpty()) {
        System.out.println("None");
    } else {
        for (int i = 0; i < cookies.size(); i++) {
            System.out.println("- " + cookies.get(i).toString());
        }
    }

Note that is just for the GET part of it,

Thanks for any help 🙂

Edit: I did forget to mention, it is using HTTPS, but to be honest, I don’t know if that matters with apache client or not.

    Those cookies must be getting set AFTER you login, not before. Looking at the output with wget of the URL you have above you see this:

    Resolving campus.chipfalls.k12.wi.us... 205.213.253.11
Connecting to campus.chipfalls.k12.wi.us|205.213.253.11|:443... connected.
WARNING: Certificate verification error for campus.chipfalls.k12.wi.us: self signed certificate in certificate chain
HTTP request sent, awaiting response...
  HTTP/1.1 200 OK
  Server: Apache-Coyote/1.1

    which is the exact same thing you see. Until you actually log in you will not see the other cookies.
