Hi Tracy, There is something very strange going on here, I don't think you're using the HttpClient you think you are. When you first posted, I used code almost identical to what you're using to test it and had no problems. I've just tested again with what will become 2.0-beta1 when the release manager gets back and there is still no problem using the code you posted.
Where are you seeing the doubly escaped URL come out? I'm looking at the wire trace to see exactly what is sent to the server and it's sent to the server exactly how I passed it into the GetMethod. Can you provide the wire trace of your attempts? Instructions for doing so can be found at http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient/logging.html I must admit the getEscapedURI() and getEscapedQuery() calls look pretty suspicious, but unless I can reproduce the problem I can't be sure enough that they should really be changed - there's some strange stuff that happens in the URI classes at times and I don't understand it all. :) Adrian Sutton, Software Engineer Ephox Corporation www.ephox.com -----Original Message----- From: Tracy Boehrer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, 27 May 2003 11:54 PM To: Jakarta Commons Users List Subject: RE: [httpclient] URL encoding Given: import java.net.*; import java.util.*; import org.apache.commons.httpclient.*; import org.apache.commons.httpclient.methods.*; public class MyGetContents { public static void main(String args[]) throws MalformedURLException { try { HttpClient client = new HttpClient(); GetMethod gm = new GetMethod( "http://mail2:80/exchange/tboehrer/Inbox/RE: Test Message.EML" ); client.executeMethod( gm ); } catch( Exception e ) { System.out.println( e ); } } } Since I don't have the URL esaped, I get the following exception: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Invalid uri 'http://mail2:80/exchange/tboehrer/Inbox/RE: Test Message.EML': escaped absolute path not valid If I escape the URL to be: http://mail2:80/exchange/tboehrer/Inbox/RE:%20Test%20Message.EML, then after "parsedURI.getEscapedPath()" (below), the resultant URL is http://mail2:80/exchange/tboehrer/Inbox/RE:%2520Test%2520Message.EML. Just so that I could move on, I changed "parsedURI.getEscapedPath()" to "parsedURI.getPath()" and it seems to work fine. -----Original Message----- From: Adrian Sutton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, May 25, 2003 5:55 PM To: 'Jakarta Commons Users List' Subject: RE: [httpclient] URL encoding Hi Tracy, HttpClient should take only fully encoded URIs so the behaviour you describe would be a bug, however I can't reproduce the problem. Could you please send through a simple test case showing the problem or at least the source code you're using that experiences the problem?

If I supply an unescaped URL (that requires it), an exception is thrown. If I escape the URL, then this class will escape it again at around line 277: // set the path, defaulting to root setPath( parsedURI.getPath() == null ? "/" : parsedURI.getEscapedPath() ); --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
