Question from a Desperate Java Newbieedward choi 2010-12-09, 11:05
Excuse me for asking a general Java question here.
I tried to find Java mailing list from Google but none of them were active.
There is a problem that's been driving me crazy for a while.
I am trying to download webpages from New York Times.
With Java URL.openStream(), I can't get past the login requirement.
But with c++ socket programming (using read() and write()), I can download
any webpage just fine.
Interesting thing is that with c++, I get redirected like 10 times. Below is
the content of the header of the firstly redirected webpage when I try to
download
"

There is a clear difference between the two. I don't know why and it's been
driving me crazy.
My guess is that c++ write() function can create some kind of cookie by
itself, but Java URL.openStream() can't.
Am I right? Or can anyone explain this for me?

Not exactly what you may want - but could you try using a HTTP client
in Java ? Some of them have the ability to automatically follow
redirects, manage cookies etc.

You can use open source wget as well.

Re: Question from a Desperate Java Newbieedward choi 2010-12-10, 07:33
Are you talking about java.net.HttpURLConnection?
If so, I've already tried using that with getInputStream() function. But
still no luck.
I actually got an interesting answer from Aardvark, which said that
NY Times has a policy called "Read once for free".
So obviously I crawled with C++ application first and blew my chance to
crawl with Java application.
The answerer was not sure about this policy but I think it makes sense,
because today I tried with Java crawler first and it worked just fine.

Re: Question from a Desperate Java NewbieEdward Choi 2010-12-10, 09:08
I was wrong. It wasn't because of the "read once free" policy. I tried again with Java first again and this time it didn't work.
I looked up google and found the Http Client you mentioned. It is the one provided by apache, right? I guess I will have to try that one now. Thanks!

httpclient is good, HtmlUnit has a very good client that can simulate
things like a full web browser with cookies, but that may be overkill.
NYT's read once policy uses cookies to verify that you are there for the
first day not logged in, for later days you get 302'd unless you delete
the cookie, so stateful clients are bad.
What you may have been hit by is whatever robot trap they have -if you
generate too much load and don't follow the robots.txt rules they may
detect this and push back

I totally obey the robots.txt since I am only fetching RSS feeds :-)
I implemented my crawler with HttpClient and it is working fine.
I often get messages about "Cookie rejected", but am able to fetch news
articles anyway.
I guess the default "java.net" client is the stateful client you mentioned.
Thanks for the tip!!
