Mike,
It may be tough to get a wire log because I am seeing this at a
customer site and they may be sensitive about their data. I will check
into it though.
Here is roughly what I do:
1. I create a POST method and set the following
method.setPath();
method.setQueryString();
method.setRequestBody( <input stream> );
method.setFollowRedirects( false );
2. Execute the method
status = m_httpClient.executeMethod( method );
3. Copy the response to an OutputStream
InputStream content = method.getResponseBodyAsStream();
if( content != null ) {
copy( content, outputStream, -1 );
}
I guess I may have been a bit harsh when I said the client hangs. From
my perspective, it hangs because I don't ever get all of the data back
that I should. It seems like the HTTP client has set the socket receive
buffer really small and it can't receive the entire response. After
looking at the packet trace, the client receives exactly 24KB (24576
bytes) of the response and then shuts down the socket (the full response
is around 27KB).
I am sure that my code is functional. I have already submitted several
other requests to this host before this one fails.
Hopefully that helps a bit.

Hi Tony,
Can you give an example of the code you are using, and where exactly
things are hanging? Also, a wire log may also be helpful
