Hello, By adding some more logging around the calls to HTTP Client methods I determined that the code hangs when executeMethod (in HttpClient, which really just calls *Method's execute method) is called (I also suspected getResponseAsStream()).
So a quick look at HttpMethodBase and execute method shows a lot of debugging statements. Now if I could just get logging to work.... Is anyone using Log4J with HTTP Client? I can't get it to work, but that's for another message.
