Thanks a lot . I have a followup query, can anyone please advice me:

My application (webser) will set up sessionId in the cookie and sets
redirect URL to main page(if login is successfull). In case of
browser, this works fine with redirect thread reaches server with the
sessionId set and request for main page.

Can anyone please let me know how, it can be made to work in perl with
redirect URLs.

I think this is a basic query , but my intial search didnt help me.
Please advice

Thanks and Best Regards,
Pavan

My code till now is:

$ua = new LWP::UserAgent;
if(! $ua) {
return 0;
}

$ua->cookie_jar(HTTP::Cookies->new);
$requestString = "http://x.y.z.w?Username=abc&Password=abc";
$requestObject = HTTP::Request::Common::GET $requestString;
$result = $ua->request($requestObject);
$resp = $result->content;
print "$resp";

You really need to familiarize yourself with perldoc (or google for that
matter ;)

To the matter at hand: redirects should work quite as expected. If they
do not, then they're probably not HTTP 3xx (see
http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html) and perhaps
you'll have to resort to some fancy regex (perldoc perlre) to go to the
correct URI.
For HTTP, see ``$ua->max_redirect'' and ``$ua->requests_redirectable''
in ``perldoc LWP::UserAgent''. Also take a look in the libwww-perl
cookbook ``perldoc lwpcook''.
Someone's bound to have already done what you need.

Thanks a lot. I got the final code now

use warnings;

use HTTP::Cookies;
use HTTP::Request::Common;
use LWP::UserAgent;

{
$ua = new LWP::UserAgent;
if(! $ua) {
print "Can not get the page :UserAgent fialed \n";
return 0;
}

my $cookies=new HTTP::Cookies(file=>'./cookies.dat',autosave=>1);
$ua->cookie_jar($cookies);
# push does all magic to exrtact cookies and add to header for further
reqs. useragent should be newer
push @{ $ua->requests_redirectable }, 'POST';
$result = $ua->request(POST "http://x.y.z.p",
{
Username =>'xxx',
Password =>'xxx',
Submit =>'Submit'
});
$resp = $result->content;

$anotherURI = "http://x.y.z.p/gd";
$requestObject = HTTP::Request::Common::GET $anotherURI;
$result = $ua->request($requestObject);
$resp = $result->content;

Since this is a mod_perl list, you might want to consider ``use
strict;'' as well (actually you might consider using strict anyhow)

I've never had an LWP::UserAgent fail on me at this step, however...

..if really want to check for failures, maybe fold all the rest in an
``if ($result->is_success)'' block.

same here

in all, there are numerous things that might go wrong through the
process (e.g. perhaps you didn't really log in successfully), but maybe
this is a throw-away run once script, so if it works for you...

Hi,
The cookies would be stored in the cookie store mentioned, cookies.dat.
You can aswell check errors for every call. In mycase if need not
check the sessionid, but just pass the obtained sessionid embedded in
the further web requests

let me know what u find

thanks
pavan
