Oleg Kalnichevski commented on HTTPCLIENT-1968:
-----------------------------------------------
{quote}I understand that path normalization is reasonable, but path
normalization should not change the resource referenced which this does. {quote}
Both {{http://host.com/p1/p2}} and {{http://host.com/p1/%2Fp2}} reference the
same resource but the latter contains senseless rubbish.

> Encoded forward slashes are not preserved when rewriting URI
> ------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HTTPCLIENT-1968
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1968
> Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 4.5.7
> Reporter: Jay Modi
> Priority: Major
> Attachments: rewrite_preserve_forward_slash.diff
>
>
> URIs that contain an encoded forward slash (%2F) are no longer preserved when
> the HTTP client executes. I came across this when upgrading from 4.5.2 to
> 4.5.7 and my requests that contained an encoded forward slash suddenly
> started failing. The appears to be due to decoding and re-encoding of the
> path that takes place in the URIUtils#rewriteURI method. I've attached a
> patch that restores the old behavior but if a URI contains two slashes in a
> row in addition to an encoded slash the encoded forward slash will be decoded.
