Hi

I posted a while ago about ways of creating users automatically (I have 
5000 i need to create based on details held in a CSV file). Willhelm 
Berger very kindly sent me some code which parses a CSV file and then 
posts it using jakarta.commons HttpClient.

I have modified his code to match the parameters I need (as based on the 
URL below):

URL - /site/administration/?do=users&sub=processCreate

With parameters - 
actionType=save&username=Andrew&firstname=Andy&lastname=Cargill&
email=&organization=&passwd=hispassword&passwdconfirm=hispassword&homePageLabel=none

And it doesn't work.. The output on the command line is as follows:

Login URL: 
http://x/site/Jahia/engineName/login/pid/1??username=x&password=x&loginChoice=1&screen=save
Post  URL: http://x/site/administration/?do=users&sub=processCreate
Response Code Login: 200
start reading csv file
processing line + 1:Adam,Alexander,1047,...

processResponseHeaders
WARNING: Invalid cookie header: 
"JSESSIONID=84B88BABB82D42AA80637A5AC48F20D9; Path=". Missing value for 
path attribute
Response Code: 200

So it seems to login fine, but the create doesn't work even though it 
gives me a 200.

Does anyone have any ideas why this is not working?

cheers
Edd
