Hi Michael
So far, no luck. The test app produces the following output for me
---
Listening on port 7345
Press any key to exit.
Incoming connection from /127.0.0.1
New connection thread
Unrecoverable HTTP protocol violation: Invalid request line: 1ff4
Handling authentication
Created new auth scheme: ntlm
Reusing connection for authentication.
---
I looked at the pcap dump but could not make much out of it. A plain text
version would be very much appreciated. However, a wire log produced by
HttpCore itself would still be the best option for me, as I would enable me to
correlate the I/O events triggered on the connection with the connection state.
What I find very suspicious is that the response does not contain 'Connection:
close' directive, which is a usual practice when a web servers chooses to
respond to a request without receiving the complete request body.

> The server I am connecting to is IIS/7.5. I am using NTLM authentication
> (with JCIFS), so I need to keep the connection alive through several round
> trips as the NTLM message exchange occurs.
> I dug into the HttpCore code, and here is my analysis of what is occurring:
> 1.) AsyncNHttpClientHandler.connect calls requestReady to send the initial
> request. This sets the request on the connection, and the connection starts
> writing the request line in response to write events.
> 2.) The server receives the request line and responds immediately with a 401
> Unauthorized. At this point the POST body has not been fully sent to the
> server.
> 3.) AsyncNHttpClientHandler.inputReady is called with the response from the
> server. At this point processResponse is called, and my code executes. I
> detect that the request needs authentication and I need to retransmit my
> request with an auth header, so my ConnectionReuseStrategy says to keep the
> connection alive.
> 4.) When control returns from my code, the code in processResponse calls
> connState.resetOutput, clearing the entity and request in connState. There
> is still output from the POST body pending.
> 5.) processResponse calls conn.requestOutput to reenable write events since
> the connection is not to be closed.
> 6.) A write event happens, and DefaultNHttpClientConnection.produceOutput is
> called. Since the output from the initial request never finished,
> contentEncoder is not null and so AsyncNHttpClientHandler.outputReady is
> called instead of requestReady. Since connState was reset, the entity is
> null and this NPE happens.
> I copied the code of AsyncNHttpClientHandler and added a conn.suspendInput()
> call in requestReady:
> if (entityReq != null && entityReq.expectContinue()) {
> .....
> } else {
> conn.suspendInput();
> }
> and a conn.requestInput call in outputReady:
> entity.produceContent(encoder, conn);
> if(encoder.isCompleted()) {
> conn.requestInput();
> }
> and this seemed to resolve the issue by not allowing the request and response
> to overlap, but I'm not sure this is the best way to fix it.
