zeno,

Okay, let me get this straight:

  • using browser, when you go to http://www.infojobs.net/empresa_login.cfm, you're browser shows cookies being sent back
  • using LWP, when you go to http://www.infojobs.net/empresa_login.cfm, no cookies are being sent back

If that's correct, I believe you must all ready have cookies for infojobs.net in your browser's cookie jar and it's doing something different based because when you come to the page you're sending those cookies. When I go to http://www.infojobs.net/empresa_login.cfm with my browser (konqueror), I am not presented with any cookies at all. If you can, copy your browsers cookie to your lwpcookies.txt (being careful of format and what not).

    You really do want to be careful of your formats - IE, Netscape, and LWP all save their cookie data differently.

    Also, double check the code that gets and saves your cookies - you might be missing something - feel free to post it (more/all) here :-)

    Better yet, use the file to create the HTTP::Cookies cookie-jar object, then you don't have to copy it or maintain two copies. Note that there is a specific subclass if your cookie file is from Netscape, HTTP::Cookies::Netscape.
