Hello Daniel,

Please post a wire log, so we know what the HTTP server responds.
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient/logging.html

Feel free to hide host names and passwords in the log. But
you should make sure to hide all occurrences and not just
the first one ;-)

That query string you are using is bad. You really should
switch to a POST or PUT request and send the parameters
in the message body. That's what it's there for. RFC 2616
has a few words to say on URL length, for example in 3.2.1:

   The HTTP protocol does not place any a priori limit on the length of
   a URI. Servers MUST be able to handle the URI of any resource they
   serve, and SHOULD be able to handle URIs of unbounded length if they
   provide GET-based forms that could generate such URIs. A server
   SHOULD return 414 (Request-URI Too Long) status if a URI is longer
   than the server can handle (see section 10.4.15).

      Note: Servers ought to be cautious about depending on URI lengths
      above 255 bytes, because some older client or proxy
      implementations might not properly support these lengths.

cheers,
  Roland
