使用htmlUnit登录到学校网站

Question

I'm trying to make an application for my school website (reggienet.illinoisstate.edu), but I'm having trouble getting entering the login and having it stored in the cookies that I am logged in. I've scoured the web and tried everything I could find, but nothing is working I'm totally lost.

Here is the code that I have right now

public void login()
{
    HtmlPage currentPage = null;
    Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in);
    WebClient webClient = new WebClient();
    try
    {
        webClient = reggieLogin(webClient, keyboard);
    }
    catch (Exception e)
    {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
    try
    {
        currentPage = webClient.getPage(""https://reggienet.illinoisstate.edu/portal"");
    }
    catch (FailingHttpStatusCodeException e)
    {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
    catch (MalformedURLException e)
    {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
    catch (IOException e)
    {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
    String pageSource = currentPage.asXml();

    System.out.print(pageSource);
}


private WebClient reggieLogin(WebClient webClient, Scanner keyboard) throws Exception
{
    webClient.getOptions().setJavaScriptEnabled(false);
    HtmlPage currentPage = webClient.getPage("https://account.illinoisstate.edu/centrallogin/"); //Load page at the STRING address.
    HtmlInput username = currentPage.getElementByName("username"); //Find element called loginuser for username
    System.out.print("ULID:  ");
    username.setValueAttribute(keyboard.nextLine()); //Set value for username
    HtmlInput password = currentPage.getElementByName("password"); //Find element called loginpassword for password
    System.out.print("Password:  ");
    password.setValueAttribute(keyboard.nextLine()); //Set value for password
    HtmlButtonInput submitBtn = currentPage.getElementByName("submit"); //Find element called Submit to submit form.
    currentPage = submitBtn.click(); //Click on the button.

    return webClient;
}

Can anybody offer any help, or can anybody see what's wrong with this code?

Consider using the Selenium library to interact with websites. It has methods for editing browser cookies. Here is a link to its java documentation.
