POST with HttpClient

An alternative way to do Http POST using Jakarta-HttpClient

PostMethod post = new PostMethod("http://jakarata.apache.org/");
        NameValuePair[] data = {
          new NameValuePair("user", "joe"),
          new NameValuePair("password", "bloggs")
        };
        post.setRequestBody(data);
        // execute method and handle any error responses.
        ...
        InputStream in = post.getResponseBodyAsStream();
        // handle response.

Shibboleth UsernamePassword login handler

We recently switched our IdP installation from using RemoteUser login handler to the UsernamePassword handler for authentication. The UsernamePassword handler uses jaas for authentication. We're attempting to customize the default login.jsp page used by the Shibboleth IdP to our own page, this is done by recompiling the IdP with a web.xml file pointing to the new login page

     UsernamePasswordAuthHandler
     edu.internet2.middleware.shibboleth.idp.authn.provider.UsernamePasswordLoginServlet
     
        loginPage
        specialPages/login.jsp
     
 

Java HTTP POST Request

    public void doPost() throws Exception {
        try {
            // Construct data
            String data = URLEncoder.encode("j_username", "UTF-8") + "=" + URLEncoder.encode("test", "UTF-8");
            data += "&" + URLEncoder.encode("j_password", "UTF-8") + "=" + URLEncoder.encode("test", "UTF-8");

            // Send data
            URL url = new URL("/specialpages/script.jsp");
            URLConnection conn = url.openConnection();
            conn.setDoOutput(true);
            OutputStreamWriter wr = new OutputStreamWriter(conn.getOutputStream());
            wr.write(data);
            wr.flush();

            //// Get the response
            BufferedReader rd = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(conn.getInputStream()));
            String line;
            while ((line = rd.readLine()) != null) {
                System.out.println(line);
            }
            wr.close();
            rd.close();
        } catch (Exception e) {
        }

    }
