Ortwin Glück commented on HTTPCLIENT-857:
-----------------------------------------
Sami, it's not an issue of the client. It issues correct HTTP requests. If the
website chooses to respond with 404, its their decision. I suspect the website
checks for some additional headers that are not present by default (and not
required by any spec). If you want this fixed, I suggest you invest some time
and investigate what kind of request artifacts these sites expect. The "fix"
would then be to include these headers in your requests.
> some sites return 404 status code even though they are accessible by all
> browsers
