can not get Cookie from headers response

Question

I'm beginner, I maked a HTTP request and get response back in this code:

 public void postData() {
    // Create a new HttpClient and Post Header
    HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
    HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost("http://192.168.1.105/moodle/login/index.php"); //http://192.168.1.105/moodle/login/index.php

    try {
        // Add your data
        List<NameValuePair> nameValuePairs = new ArrayList<NameValuePair>(2);
        nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("username", "admin"));
        nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("password", "dtkTj29000g!"));
        httppost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs));
        httppost.setHeader("Content-Type","application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=UTF-8");

        // Execute HTTP Post Request
        HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httppost);
        String responseContent = EntityUtils.toString(response.getEntity());
        Log.i("Response", responseContent );


        Header[] header=response.getAllHeaders();
        for(int i=0;i<header.length;i++){
            String a=header[i].getValue();
            String b=header[i].getName();
            Log.i("quangggggggggggggg",b+"__________"+a);
        }

        WebView webview = (WebView)findViewById(R.id.webkit1);
        webview.loadDataWithBaseURL(null,responseContent, "text/html", "utf-8",null);



    /*    cookies = mCookieStore.getCookies();
        for(int i=0;i<cookies.size();i++){
            String a=cookies.get(i).toString();
            Log.i("quangggggggggggg",a);
        }*/



    } catch (ClientProtocolException e) { 

    } catch (IOException e) {

    } 

} 

everythings I want just get the cookie from headers, but the headers back is not have cookie.

I had this in my logcat:

But the response headers I saw in web browser is:

I don't know why I can't get the cookie, would you help me please? thank so much!

Answer 1

You Header DOES contain a Cookie, the Set-Cookie. Retrieve it like this

Header[] cookieHeader = httpResponse.getHeaders("Set-Cookie");
        if (cookieHeader.length > 0) {
            HttpUtil.PHPSESSID = cookieHeader[0].getValue();
        }
