Hi,

I have read a lot of posts here, none of them seems to resolve my
problem.

I want to make a connection to a site, login using GET variables.

If I directly call the site like : https://www.site.com/?username=me&password=mypass
then i get a page telling me to turn on cookie support.

To solve this I guess i have to include a cookie from 'site.com' in my
request.

When I execute this code, i still get the 'you dont accept cookies'
page.
When I examine the headers there is no "cookie" attribute

so here is what i did :

    //first obtain a cookie by requesting the login page
    URL url = new URL(GET_COOKIE_URL);

    HttpURLConnection urlconnection = (HttpURLConnection)
url.openConnection();

        // Get the cookie
        String cookie = urlconnection.getHeaderField("Set-Cookie");

        // everything after ; can go
        int index = cookie.indexOf(";");
        if (index >= 0) {
            cookie = cookie.substring(0, index);
        }

        // Up to the next page (https://www.site.com/?
username=me&password=mypass)
        url = new URL(LOGIN_CONNECT_URL);

        urlconnection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();

        // set the cookie
        urlconnection.setDoOutput(true);
        urlconnection.setRequestProperty("cookie", cookie);
        logger.info("Cookie set as : " + cookie);

        OutputStream rawOutStream = urlconnection.getOutputStream();
        PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(rawOutStream);

        pw.print(""); // here we "send" our body!
        pw.flush();
        pw.close();

        InputStream is = urlconnection.getInputStream();
        InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader(is);
        BufferedReader bufRead = new BufferedReader(isr);
