Hi there,
I want to logon to a secure site which is using https and a secure certificate.
My script doesn't return any error, but I can't log in. After I submitted the form using my code, I get a html-site that's telling my "Username or password wrong...".
But username and passwort is correct. If I copy and paste from my script to the corresponding fields in a browser and submit the form, it works fine.

Here the shortened HTML-Form of my site ' https://mySite.de/admin ':

<form action="/admin/index.php?action=login" method="post" name="actio
+n"> 
   <input type="hidden" name="ADMIN" value="f23af307ea00b284fb9e74c4cb
+abfbdf" /> 
   <input type="text" name="username" size="12" value=""> 
   <input type="password" name="password" size="12"> 
   <input type="submit" name="login" value="Login"> 
</form>

Here my script:

01: use WWW::Mechanize; 
02: use LWP::Debug qw(+); 
03: 
04: $username = "xxx"; 
05: $password = "xxx"; 
06: 
07: my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new(); 
08: 
09:    $mech->cookie_jar(HTTP::Cookies->new()); 
10:    $mech->get( "https://mySite.de/admin" ); 
11:     
12:    #Get ADMIN-ID 
13:    $mech->content() =~ /name=\"ADMIN\" value=\"([^\"]+)/g; 
14:    $hiddenField = $1; 
15:        
16:    #Fill form 
17:    $mech->submit_form( 
18:                  form_name => "action", 
19:                    fields      => { 
20:                      ADMIN => $hiddenField, 
21:                      username   => $username, 
22:                      password => $password}, 
23:                    button => 'login'); 
24: 
25:     #Print site            
26:    print $mech->content();

My first though was 'Maybe I'm getting redirected!?" I checked that and it's not the case.
Here the results from'LWP::Debug qw(+)':
