Does the HTTP session type handle 3xx redirects?

I'm trying to test a basic web app that redirects to the login page if the username/password are incorrect. I can't seem to get the http session to do this. If I do a POST to my login page... post ./login I get the following response. Note the structure view, where I see the "no protocol" error. Not sure why I get that. Also note the 302 response code. This situation happens whenever there is a 302 response code. Is this expected? ![http session error][1] [1]: /storage/temp/4037-http_post_error.png

![alt text][1]Hi Andy, For 3xx redirects Rest session will be useful as we have an option "Auto Redirect 3xx status codes" in sesison profile. Please give it a try and I hope it meets your requirement !! Regards, Venkat [1]: /storage/temp/4038-rest.jpg

Hi Sandeep! So, are you saying that the REST session obsoletes the HTTP session?

Yes, Rest session is the advanced one for HTTP session and it has GUI view where HTTP session has only terminal access.
