Problem posting login information and redirect
I have the same problem. I did a post and also setFollowRedirects to true.
But it did not go to the Location automatically. I had to
manually read the location from the header and then do a get again. Any
idea?
thanks,
Michelle

Hello Marcelo,
> But this url has a redirect!
What is the problem? HttpClient typically follows redirects
automatically if configured to do that:
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient/apidocs/org/apache/commons/httpclient/HttpMethod.html#setFollowRedirects(boolean)
There are few cases where HttpClient is not allowed to follow
the redirect without user interaction. In that case, your
application will get a 3xx response and you can take the
target URL from the "Location" header in the response.
hope that helps,
Roland
