in reply to Re: HTTP 302 error now??
in thread LWP, extract_cookies, etc.

IlyaM: You have been great!

It still doesn't post the data and gives me what seems to be the screen that would show up if someone was not logged in. I used your newest code (just a note, I had to add a ");" on the end of line 12) and it gave me the following in the header of the page returned:

The rest of the page comes up with their default signup form (when you are in the member area and not logged in?). Any ideas? It doesn't seem like the cookie is being passed with the second POST request. THANKS!

Re: No more 302 error, just no cookie info with POST?

    It is hard to say what is wrong. You should try to turn on debug output in LWP::UserAgent. See LWP::Debug. For example if you add following code into your script it will turn on all debug prints inside LWP::UserAgent. 
    
use use LWP::Debug qw(+);

    Particullary you will be able to see all redirects and all headers. It will show you if you do recieve cookie in response for first request and if it sent back later in second request.

      I turned on LWP debug and the only thing that seems like an error is this:

      LWP::UserAgent::_need_proxy: Not proxied

      [download]


      Is that the problem why my POST is not POSTing? Or is there something else to look for in the debug results? THANKS!!

        I found this node discussing the WinProxy. I know the box I am trying to POST to runs IIS (blah). Could this help me? How do I insert this into the header, if so? Below is an excerpt about winproxy I found. see full node 56141 
        GET /index.html HTTP/1.0
Host: www.google.com

        [download]

        Now this works on virtually every proxy. Except WinProxy. WinProxy requires an additional header, as well as browser identification, so the same request would look like this: 
        GET / HTTP/1.0
Host: www.google.com
User-agent: Mozilla/4.7 
Remote-Host-Wp: 10.0.3.82

        [download]

        Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
