It turns out I wasn't actually adding the PersistentCookieStore to the AsyncHttpClient. Sorry about that!

Make sure you are setting the version/domain/path on the BasicClientCookie you are creating. For example:

BasicClientCookie newCookie = new BasicClientCookie("cookiesare", "awesome");
newCookie.setVersion(1);
newCookie.setDomain("my.domain.com");
newCookie.setPath("/");
cookies.addCookie(newCookie);

If you add a cookie like this to the PersistentCookieStore then it will get sent along with requests to my.domain.com

Nevermind, I found my mistake. My cookies were being overwritten when i went from http to https. Great job with the asyncClient, it works great.

I'm having trouble using stored cookies with a request.

I used the following lines to instantiate the AsyncHttpClient and automatically add cookies from my server:
' AsyncClient = new AsyncHttpClient();
PersistentCookieStore myCookieStore = new PersistentCookieStore(this);
AsyncClient.setCookieStore(myCookieStore); '

I use the following line to make requests: AsyncClient.get(urlStr, new AsyncHttpResponseHandler();

I made requestA to fetch & store session cookies in myCookieStore. When I make requestB it seems like the stored cookies are not sent along with my request. Am I missing any steps here? Thanks for your help.

hello guys. am abit late but i need your help.
Cookies are not sent to the server. dont know why.
here is my code

private void init() {
        PersistentCookieStore myCookies = new PersistentCookieStore(mContext);
        if (mContext == null) {
            Log.d("WebClient", "Warning Context is null. Cookies wont work");
        }

        List<Cookie> cookies = myCookies.getCookies();
        Log.d("WebClient", "Cookies " + cookies.size());
        for (Cookie c : cookies) {
            String cookieName = "";
            String cookieValue = "";
            cookieName = c.getName().toString();
            cookieValue = c.getValue().toString();
            Log.d("WebClient", "Cookie Name:" + cookieName + " Cookie Value: " + cookieValue);
        }
        client.setCookieStore(myCookies);
    }

and here is my logcat

    "type": "AuthException",

    }
    }

when the first request is made the server sends back cookies for authentication on the subsequent requests. but it seems the cookies are not saved. see the cookie count!
