Dennis,
The question is, why does the method need to be retried in the first place. You should avoid having to retry expensive methods like POST and PUT normally. Furthermore a lot of questinos arise here:
* Which version of HttpClient are you using?
* Is it an authentication problem? (would expect a different exception)
* Are you using a proxy by any chance?
* Are you opening many simultanous connections to the same host?
* Which HTTP Version does the server use?
* Can you provide a wire log or packet log of the communication?
Thanks

Hi all.
I badly need help on an error (HttpRecoverableException) I'm getting. Here's part of my java source code:
<< the class where httpclient instance is created >>
MultiThreadedHttpConnectionManager cmgr = new
MultiThreadedHttpConnectionManager();
cmgr.setConnectionStaleCheckingEnabled( true );
cmgr.setMaxConnectionsPerHost( 10 );
cmgr.setMaxTotalConnections( 100 );
HttpClient httpclient = new HttpClient(cmgr);
httpclient.setConnectionTimeout(30000);
httpclient.setTimeout(30000);
httpclient.setState( this.commonHttpState);
<< class where httppost is made >>
DefaultMethodRetryHandler methodretry = new DefaultMethodRetryHandler();
methodretry.setRequestSentRetryEnabled(true);
PostMethod httppost = new PostMethod(this.server_url.toString());
httppost.setMethodRetryHandler(methodretry);
httpClient.executeMethod(httppost);
I do see the recoverable exception caught three times:
2004/08/19 11:55:44:650 CDT [INFO] HttpMethodBase - -Recoverable exception caught when processing request
But on the fourth recoverable exception, I get this:
2004/08/19 11:56:07:440 CDT [WARN] HttpMethodBase - -Recoverable exception caught but MethodRetryHandler.retryMethod() returned false, rethrowing exception
2004/08/19 11:56:07:440 CDT [DEBUG] MultiThreadedHttpConnectionManager - -Freeing connection, hostConfig=HostConfiguration[host=nwapeople2.nwa.com, protocol=https:443, port=443]
2004/08/19 11:56:07:440 CDT [DEBUG] MultiThreadedHttpConnectionManager - -Notifying no-one, there are no waiting threads
2004/08/19 11:56:07:490 CDT [WARN] MainMenu - -Web Service Exception: he.commons.httpclient.HttpRecoverableException: Error in parsing the status line from the response: unable to find line starting with "HTTP"
Is there something I'm not doing right?
Thanks.
Dennis
