Damon Horrell commented on CXF-6611:
------------------------------------
Note: I have tested this with localhost so the header is not being modified by
something else along the way.
> Unable to override Host in HTTP Header

> Key: CXF-6611
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-6611
> Project: CXF
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.7.7
> Reporter: Damon Horrell
>
> Setting http-conf:client Host="xxx" doesn't work.
> According to the following link this should set the HTTP Host header:
> http://cxf.apache.org/docs/client-http-transport-including-ssl-support.html#ClientHTTPTransport(includingSSLsupport)-Theclientelement
> I've stepped through the code in Headers.setFromClientPolicy and it is using
> this to create the headers. The outbound logging interceptor also shows this
> header set on the message.
> However when the request arrives at the server, the Host header is set to the
> actual address not the value that I specified. I have verified this with a
> servlet filter and also with a debugging web proxy.
> So at some point after the logging, the Host header is being lost. Other
> headers (also set via http-conf:client) do get sent correctly.
