Question

This question is kinda an addition to this question:
How to log into Facebook programmatically using Java?

I have used (a slightly modified version of) the following code to log into accounts of other websites just fine.

WebClient webClient = new WebClient();
HtmlPage page1 = webClient.getPage("http://www.facebook.com");
HtmlForm form = page1.getForms().get(0);
HtmlSubmitInput button = (HtmlSubmitInput) form.getInputsByValue("Login").get(0);
HtmlTextInput textField = form.getInputByName("email");
textField.setValueAttribute("[e-mail]");
HtmlPasswordInput textField2 = form.getInputByName("pass");
textField2.setValueAttribute("ladeeda");
HtmlPage page2 = button.click();

However, whenever I attempt to log into facebook with correct email and password, I run into two problems:

SEVERE: Job run failed with unexpected RuntimeException: TypeError: Cannot find 
function addImport in object [object]. 
(http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/rsrc.php/yC/r/gmR3y_ARtaM.js#10)

Exception class=[com.gargoylesoftware.htmlunit.ScriptException]
com.gargoylesoftware.htmlunit.ScriptException: TypeError: Cannot read property "length"         
from undefined (http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/rsrc.php/yC/r/gmR3y_ARtaM.js#10)

What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

It looks like htmlunit doesn’t like some of the javascript.

Try switching it off as it shouldn’t be necessary for login:

webClient.setJavaScriptEnabled(false);
