Newline in between cookie values causes failed login. (With fix) #2

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

The newline in the Cookie output was causing my login to fail. This was fixed 
by changing line 90 
(in the get_page method of CookieScraper) from:

opener.addheader('Cookie', self._cookies.output(attrs=[], header='').strip())
to
opener.addheader('Cookie', self._cookies.output(attrs=[], 
header='').strip().replace('\r\n', '; '))

The behavior now mimics what I see with Firefox Live HTTP Headers when I login.

I was getting HTTP error 400 'Bad Request ( The data is invalid.  )' during the 
login
and found that this change fixed it. Thanks.

I found this bug myself - I was getting the error:

    Couldn't find <base href> on page after logging in.

because login was failing and the script was getting redirected to login again.
My fix was the following (applied to the same line as original poster):

    opener.addheader('Cookie', self._cookies.output(attrs=[], header='',
sep=';').strip())

Shame that the script hasn't been corrected - in almost two years.

Are you guys that got this working using Exchange 2007 or 2003.  I'm on 2007 and
these suggestions aren't working for me.

I was getting a 104, 'Connection reset by peer', and this fix worked for me.  
Thanks
so much!

(I'm on 2003, sorry hp.)

I have the same issue, it's a long time passed since there have been comments, 
there is no new release that I know of, and none of the fixes here are giving 
me positive results.  It looks like this:

user=OCG\kbarrett
error: uncaptured python exception, closing channel <__main__.POPChannel 
connected 127.0.0.1:49430 at 0x97a17cc> (<class 
'scraper.RetrievalError'>:Couldn't find <base href> on page after logging in.

[/home/kbarrett/Desktop/weboutlook/weboutlook/scraper.py|login|147])

The help text mentions Copyright 2003, I am not the exchange admin of course, 
but I think I should be able to make it work! ^_^
