Hi, I want to login there
https://mm.web.de/login
so I used http post:

server:port https://mm.web.de/login
data/file password= "mypassword", username= "myusername"

and I also tried https://"myusername":"mypassword"@mm.web.de/login

%HTTPR returned me 200 after I tried the second version I posted above.
but nothing worked. What's my fault?

I tried sometime ago but it seems it cannot be done with Tasker. To manage the login you should be able to track the session with a cookie and so on.

hello, i searched also for an methode to do this and found this:
1) use the cli tool wget (maybe with the ssl option) and then run it from the terminal (maybe you need root for that)
2) maybe it worked with this plugin? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.freehaha.restask
3) when you search the web you will find many people have the same problem, maybe it is time that the developer fix this?

So you mean I can't solve that problem with just using tasker? Is this a Tasker bug or is the way I am trying it wrong?

I tried it with the REStask tool and it doesn't work either.

It has to deal with the server.

The information is supplied via tasker with HTTP POST actions, but there is no requirement that the server utilize the info.

Most of the time, this has to deal with security implemented within the server.

Http post is a function that works for users on personal servers or owned business servers, that have such security bypassed for users with credential login.
