Hi, My application uses commons-httpclient 3.1 to make post request to tomcat hosted application. The latest version of tomcat seems to close the expect-100 continue request for non 200 responses(a change they introduced in 7.0.49) immediately.
As I enable some tomcat logging, I see the expect-continue request from httpClient is terminating because of 401 response status code. However the other library AbderaClient works fine in similar scenario. Couple of questions: Is there a known problem with httpClient expect-continue ? If I disable the expect-continue on httpClient, everything works. Are there any downsides of disabling this? Thanks, Umesh
