Invalid Headers when using Unirest

[artguy10]

Unirest.post("https://dweet.io/dweet").fields(map).asJson(); // map is a HashMap of course

I am making a standard POST request to a server and I get the following while receiving a response.

Jun 06, 2015 4:36:18 PM org.apache.http.client.protocol.ResponseProcessCookies processCookies
WARNING: Invalid cookie header: "Set-Cookie: dweet:thing=hallowed-mailbox; path=/; expires=Sun,
05 Jun 2016 20:36:16 GMT; httponly". Invalid 'expires' attribute: Sun, 05 Jun 2016 20:36:16 GMT

Can someone please help me fix this frustrating error? I love Unirest, it's like requests but in Java too!

I encountered the same problem and found a solution:

RequestConfig globalConfig = RequestConfig.custom()
.setCookieSpec(CookieSpecs.IGNORE_COOKIES).build();
        
HttpClient httpclient = HttpClients.custom().setDefaultRequestConfig(globalConfig).build();
Unirest.setHttpClient(httpclient);

Thanks for the response, Wondering is there a way to fix it than just IGNORING cookies/warnings?

CookieSpecs.IGNORE_COOKIES: just IGNORING cookies
CookieSpecs.STANDARD: will parse Invalid 'expires';The RFC 6265 compliant policy (interoprability profile).
see http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client-ga/httpclient/apidocs/org/apache/http/client/config/CookieSpecs.html

Hello, this should be resolved or addressed in Unirest 2. Please see the upgrade guide for important changes.

Unirest.config().cookieSpec("standard");

solved it for me.
