copied!<p>I am currently in the process of automating a web interface for administrating users of an FTP.</p> <p>I am trying to do this with HttpWebRequest, i have one call that logs me on the site and the second call is supose to add a new user for the FTP access.</p> <p>I have tried my two urls in the browser and they work, they end up creating a user.</p> <pre><code>string login = "https://www.ftpsite.net/./panel/index.php?txvUsername=myaccount&txvPassword=myPassword&submitButton=Login"; </code></pre> <p>this gets me logged in when i enter it in the browser address bar.</p> <p>the second call to create a user is as follows.</p> <pre><code>string createUser = "https://www.ftpSite.net/panel/ftpsites/updatelogin?login_id=&login=toto123&realname=realnametoto&homedir=root&passwd=superpassword11&expdate=01-01-2100&neverExpire=on&quota_value=0&quota_unit=GB&group_id=0&status=on&ftp=on&filelist=on&ftp_download=on&http=on&web_filelist=on&web_download=on&email="; </code></pre> <p>This creates a user when i enter it in the browser's address bar if it follows the one that logs us in.</p> <p>My problem is that i am trying to do this using HttpWebRequest and without success. I can get myself logged in but when i try to create the user it seems to return a "bad" error code saying i have created too many users already which isnt the case since i can create more after that call. Here is the code i use with HtttpRequest</p> <pre><code> _datCookie = new CookieContainer(); HttpWebRequest httpWebRequest = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(login); httpWebRequest.Method = "POST"; httpWebRequest.CookieContainer = _datCookie; WebResponse response = httpWebRequest.GetResponse(); referer = response.ResponseUri.AbsoluteUri; Stream requestStream = response.GetResponseStream(); StreamReader streamReader = new StreamReader(requestStream); _datCookie = httpWebRequest.CookieContainer; response.Close(); httpWebRequest = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(createUser); httpWebRequest.CookieContainer = _datCookie; httpWebRequest.Referer = referer; httpWebRequest.Method = "POST"; response = httpWebRequest.GetResponse(); requestStream = response.GetResponseStream(); streamReader = new StreamReader(requestStream); webBrowser.DocumentText = streamReader.ReadToEnd(); response.Close(); </code></pre> <p>What i caught and tried to imitate without success <a href="http://i.imgur.com/UtIbz.jpg" rel="nofollow">here</a>.</p>
