Description

I informed about this bug already some releases before but at least in the 3.01 release it is still not resolved. Here it is again: SSL with the contrib package with Client- and Servercertificates is not working and throws an Exception, I don't remember which one. This is due to a bug in the HttpClient class. I patched the code as following:

public int executeMethod(HostConfiguration hostconfig,
final HttpMethod method, final HttpState state)
throws IOException, HttpException {

LOG.trace("enter HttpClient.executeMethod(HostConfiguration,HttpMethod,HttpState)");

if (method == null)

{ throw new IllegalArgumentException("HttpMethod parameter may not be null"); }

HostConfiguration defaulthostconfig = getHostConfiguration();
if (hostconfig == null)

{ hostconfig = defaulthostconfig; }

URI uri = method.getURI();
if (hostconfig == defaulthostconfig || uri.isAbsoluteURI()) {
// make a deep copy of the host defaults
hostconfig = new HostConfiguration(hostconfig);
if (hostconfig.getHost() == null && uri.isAbsoluteURI())

{ hostconfig.setHost(uri); }

}

HttpMethodDirector methodDirector = new HttpMethodDirector(
getHttpConnectionManager(),
hostconfig,
this.params,
(state == null ? getState() : state));
methodDirector.executeMethod(method);
return method.getStatusCode();
}
