301 Moved premanently

user123 (22)
Im trying to make a console program that tries to login to this site.
Im not using any libraries, they just confuse me.
The question is not really much of a programming one, more of a question about networking/web based stuff..
It sends a post request, and prints out the response.
It gives me this: "Error 301 moved permanently".
For more info, try the code out yourself.

No. It's your job to describe the problem.

Did you even read about 301 error codes? The server should be sending back an alternate URL for you to retry.
