I have an url which is redirecting: http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/Scripts/cder/DrugsatFDA/index.cfm?fuseaction=Reports.SetReport&rptname=1&reportSelectDate=12%2F2009&ta=Submits
org.apache.http.client.HttpClient can follow the redirect without any problem and get the content. However URLFetchService has problems following the redirects, java.io.IOException: Could not fetch URL. Clearly the implementations are different, but I wonder how I can get the URLFetchService to also read in that url. Could this be a bug? If I ask HttpClient not to follow the redirect, it comes back with "temporarily moved", which I believe is HTTP Error 302. Any help would be very kind. The code using the URLFetchService: URL url = new URL(urlStr); URLFetchService urlFetchService = URLFetchServiceFactory.getURLFetchService(); HTTPRequest httpRequest = new HTTPRequest(url, HTTPMethod.GET,followRedirects()); HTTPResponse response = urlFetchService.fetch(httpRequest); The code using HTTPClient String url = "http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/Scripts/cder/DrugsatFDA/ index.cfm? fuseaction=Reports.SetReport&rptname=1&reportSelectDate=12%2F2009&ta=Submits"; HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient (); httpclient.getParams().setBooleanParameter ( "http.protocol.handle-redirects", true); HttpGet httpGet = new HttpGet (url); ResponseHandler<String> responseHandler = new BasicResponseHandler (); String responseBody; try { responseBody = httpclient.execute(httpGet, responseHandler); System.out.println (responseBody); } catch (ClientProtocolException e) { e.printStackTrace (); } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace (); } -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine for Java" group.
