Hi, We had the same issue when upgrading to restlet 2.0.0. Some links about the (I think) same issue:
http://restlet.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=1053 andhttp://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.java.restlet/12273 It all boils down to calling the exhaust() method on the response representation (in a finally-block), which solves the problem. For some reason calling the release() method is not enough, and this 'exhaust' solves the problem. We asked a similar question on the list some days ago. We still have other issues (closed streams in a StreamRepresentation), which did not happen in restlet version r6565 but do happen in 2.0.0. Maybe an overview of what has changed and what to be carefull about would be a good idea?
