Problem with GMAIL login script

[JackWebb]

Hi Everyone!

 

So I use Autoit to automate my logins. Gmail has recently made some changes to their login page that breaks my script. The username goes in okay, but not the password. I can type in the password manually and it's no problem. What I can't understand is how does the browser know the password is not being typed in manually? I tried every trick I could think of (i'm an Autoit noob) to simulate human typing. Using send() raw and slowing down the type rate of the keys. Nothing works, can anyone shed some light on this?

 

#include <WinAPIShPath.au3>
#include <Array.au3>

Opt("SendKeyDelay", 25)
Opt("SendKeyDownDelay", 25)

Send("email@gmail.com", 1)
sleep(1500)

Send("{enter down}", 0)
Send("{enter up}", 0)
sleep(1500)

Send("password", 1)
sleep(1500)

Send("{enter down}", 0)
Send("{enter up}", 0)

#include <WinAPIShPath.au3>
#include <Array.au3>


HotKeySet("{F2}","start")

Func start()
sleep(200)
Send("EMAIL@gmail.com")
sleep(1000)

Send("{enter}")
sleep(1000)

Send("PASSWORD")
sleep(1000)

Send("{enter}")
Exit
EndFunc

While 1
    sleep(100)
WEnd

Not sure if you're still having trouble... but i tested that and it worked for me  (change email and password to your email and password in case it wasn't obvious  )

(if it doesn't work try running as Admin)

Fixer!

 

Thank you for that. I copied your code and it just worked, I was beside myself. It forced me to look at other parts of my code and lo and behold.. I found the problem in another part of my program.. It happens like that sometimes. So thank you for removing my blinders, I owe you a beer!

Hi,

Is it possible for you to share the full script you have tried for the new Gmail method?

Thanks!
