Mechanzie submit fails at gmail login

Ruby
#1

Hallo everybody,

I try to write a script that checks my gmails automatically. But when I
try to submit the login form, I get the exception 404 =>
Net::HTTPNotFound. Can anyone help?

Code is:

@LoginUrl = ‘http://mail.google.com/mail/’
@agent = Mechanize.new
@agent.keep_alive = false
@agent.user_agent = ‘Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; de;
rv:1.9.2) Gecko/20100115 Firefox/3.6’
@agent.follow_meta_refresh = true
@agent.redirect_ok = true
@agent.ca_file = ‘cacert.pem’

login_page = @agent.get(@LoginUrl)

begin
login_form = login_page.forms.first
login_form.Email = account
login_form.Passwd = password

login_response_page = @agent.submit login_form

rescue Exception => e
print e, “\n”
end

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

try this:

@agent.submit(login_form,login_form.button_with(:name => “SignIn”))

I’m not sure about the name of the button but you get the idea

Hi,

thanks for your reply. I tried it your way, bt it didn’t help. Still get
the exception. Seems the agent doesn’t know the form, wehn he tries to
submit it. But it doesn’t make sence anyway.

Hi,

I’ve looked up and the name of the button is “signIn”. I did a little
test
here and everything went fine. Try checking the name.

I tested this script on windows xp box with ruby 1.9.1 installation and
it
seems just fine here.

Hey there,

still same problem. I now tried another OS (tested now with Win2k and
XP). Which OS you take?
