Good so far. > But to what URL should the above response be posted? It should be a POST request to /[webapp]/j_security_check, and include the JSESSIONID cookie set by the server when the login page was returned. > <form action="j_security_check" ...>...</form>. Again, note that the method should be POST (which your code does seem to be doing). > A browser does not know about Tomcat protocols, so it > would I imagine send the request to j_security_check. Correct, but that's accepted by Tomcat only when a login form has just been returned to the client. There's no indication in your code that the j_security_check is being sent as a response to a login form, nor is the required JSESSIONID cookie being returned. > So any ideas on how to make https requests through code? This isn't tied to HTTPS, just form login. The SSL negotiation is completely separate. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
