Hello Oleg, thanks for the quick reply. I am aware of the hop-by-hop headers and even though I am not yet taking - fully - care of them in the original code (the one I posted was slightly trimmed down) I wouldnt suspect them to be the problem as my test only involved a simple GET, where only the typical user-agent, accept, .... headers are forwarded. Furthermore the problem also occurs without forwarding any headers. As I previously mentioned I could successfully receive the response headers by manually sending the request (via the socket) so I suppose I missed something at the sending part. Thanks for the example code, as far as I can see it also uses a HttpRequestExecutor, which worked for me as well, however I would assume the code without a HttpRequestExecutor should work as well, shouldnt it? What would the HttpRequestExecutor exactly do in addition?
