I am writing a personal Java application that will allow me to view
financial balances posted on a web site. To view the site with my
Firefox browser, I do the following:
1) I paste the URL: https://isc.nwservicecenter.com/iApp/isc/cmd/Login
into my "URL bar"
2) The browser takes me to the Logon page
3) I enter my "username" and "password" and either click on a "Go" button or
press the Enter key on my keyboard.
4) The browser takes me to
https://isc.nwservicecenter.com/iApp/isc/cmd/AppLogic+IAAcctSummary
where I view my account summary
Firefox handles all cookies automatically.
I have written a Java application, modeled after the HttpClientTutorial,
that I think should do the same thing, but, so far at least, it does not. The
program seems able to connect with the URL in step 1). It also seems to send
my "username" and "password" using a POST. However, the printout of the
responseBody shows the html code of the Login page rather than the page showing
the account summary in step 4). The commented code listing of my HttpClient
application is as follows.
Please, please use instructions given in the HttpClient logging guide
and produce a wire/context log of the HTTP session that exhibits the
problem.
