Alex Dupre created HTTPCLIENT-1197:
--------------------------------------
Summary: Redirects (301 responses) to other sites (not a different
page on the same site) don't get followed.
Key: HTTPCLIENT-1197
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1197
Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 4.2 Final
Reporter: Alex Dupre
If a server, during a simple GET, returns http status code 301 to redirect the
client to another site, an exception is thrown instead of following the new
location. This is a major regression, since in httpclient 4.1 it was working
correctly.
