Trying to get a login script working, I kept getting the same login page returned, so I turned on debugging of the http stream (can’t use wireshark or the like because of https).
I got nothing, so I copied the example, it works. Any query to google.com works, but to my target page does not show debugging, what is the difference? If it was a redirect I would expect to see the first get/redirect header, and http://google redirects as well.
import urllib
import urllib2
import pdb
h=urllib2.HTTPHandler(debuglevel=1)
opener = urllib2.build_opener(h)
urllib2.install_opener(opener)
print '================================'
data = urllib2.urlopen('http://google.com').read()
print '================================'
data = urllib2.urlopen('https://google.com').read()
print '================================'
data = urllib2.urlopen('https://members.poolplayers.com/default.aspx').read()
print '================================'
data = urllib2.urlopen('https://google.com').read()
When I run I get this.
$ python ex.py

You’ll need an HTTPSHandler:
