I'm creating a unit test to try out the servlet I just created. @Test public void test() throws ParseException, IOException { HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient(); HttpPost post = new HttpPost("http://localhost:8080/WebService/MakeBaby"); List<NameValuePair> nameValuePairs = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>(); nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("father_name", "Foo")); nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("mother_name", "Bar")); post.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs)); HttpResponse response = null; try { response = client.execute(post); } catch

I'd like to programmatically access a site that requires Client certificates, which I have in PEM files. In this application I don't want to add them to my keystore, use keytool, or openssl if I can avoid doing so. I need to deal with them directly in code. HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient(); HttpGet httpget = new HttpGet("https://my.secure.site.com/url"); // TODO: Specify ca.pem and client.pem here? HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httpget); HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity(); if (entity != null) { entity.consumeContent(); } httpclient.getConnectionManager()

I am using Unirest (java version) to make GET and POST request.But I encounter a problem when accessing SSL encrypted site , since my program is behind a corporate network and the network admin setup a firewall mapping for me. For example foobar.com is mapped to 56.1.89.12:4444 . But when I make request to the address, I will received the following ssl certificate error: com.mashape.unirest.http.exceptions.UnirestException: javax.net.ssl.SSLException: hostname in certificate didn't match: <56.1.89.12> != <www.foobar.com> at com.mashape.unirest.http.HttpClientHelper.request(HttpClientHelper

I need to send post data to an https url using the apache HttpClient package, after sending the post data I need to retreive the html data. the post data that I'm sending is an XML string and the post data that I'm receving is an XML string. any information regarding the issue would be greatly appreciated.

Dealing with a specific website, sometimes I receive a http response with status code 403. I wanted to re-execute the request in such cases (because, in my specific situation, this server throws a 403 when it is actually overloaded). I tried to use a ResponseHandler together with a StandardHttpRequestRetryHandler , but it didn't work the way I hoped; I expected that throwing an exception in the ResponseHandler would trigger the StandardHttpRequestRetryHandler , but it does not seems to be the case. How can I achieve the desired functionality? Here is a sample code that illustrates my situation

How do I add basic authentication for the default client of the httpClient library? I have seen examples where they use client.getCredentialProvider() , however I think all of this methods are for library version 4.0.1 or 3.x. Is there a new example of how to do this? Thanks a lot. We do basic authentication with HttpClient , but we do not use CredentialProvider . Here's the code: HttpClient client = factory.getHttpClient(); //or any method to get a client instance Credentials credentials = new UsernamePasswordCredentials(username, password); client.getState().setCredentials(AuthScope.ANY,
