Hi all, Just run into a non-standards compliance problem with IIS proxies in certain configurations. At times instead of returning a "Connection: close" header, it returns a "Proxy-connection: close" header. HttpClient misses this notification and throws an exception when it suddenly discovers the connection was closed. With anything but NTLM authentication I imagine that this would work, but HttpClient runs out of retry attempts when using NTLM.
The solution in the older codebase I'm using is to just add a check for Proxy-connection: close in HttpMethodBase.shouldCloseConnection(). I'm sure there's a similar function in the updated code. I'll look into it further and hopefully come up with a patch for discussion late this afternoon. If anyone has comments or a better solution I'd love to hear about it though.
