I have code similar to the following:
try {
HttpPost post = new HttpPost(httpsUrl);
setHeaders(post);
HttpEntity entity = new StringEntity(request, "UTF-8");
post.setEntity(entity);
HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(post);
String result = EntityReader.readContent(response.getEntity());
checkAnswer(result);
return result;
} catch (Exception e) {
throw new ZapException("Error executing the http post request:
"+e.getMessage(), e);
}
It sends the content of `request` to a server via POST using a
httpclient instance that might have already been used before (it has
persistent connections turned on, since we're sending quite some
requests to the same server...).
This _sometimes_ fails with a `SocketTimeoutException` with "Read timed
out" as the message.
It's not clear to us, why it only fails at some times, when _most_ times
it doesn't. What gives?
