Re: connections on pool close unexpectedly
Hi Sergio, Thank you for sending your sample code. It has been quite helpful. I have discovered a few interesting things. I have been able to reproduce something similar to what you have been describing. It seems that in JRE 1.2.2 and 1.3.1 (not 1.4.1) that when a connection is closed on the server side (due to inactivity) writing to it causes and IOException (in 1.4.1 it is a SocketException). This is important because SocketExceptions are considered recoverable where IOExceptions are not. So this error will not show up on some JREs as it will get treated as a recoverable exception and will be handed by the HttpMethod. This brings up a few questions: 1) should we de differentiating between SocketExceptions and IOExceptions? 2) is there some other more reliable way to determine if a connection is closed? Also, this error points out a bug in HttpConnection. When an IOException occurs on a connection the method fails but the connection is never closed or marked as unusable. Therefore is keeps getting reused even though it will always throw an IOException. This is not a problem in the case of SocketExceptions as the connection gets reopened by the method. It seems to me that the HttpConnection should probably be closing itself when any exception occurs during writing (maybe reading too). What do others think? Sergio. To fix this problem for the short term I would suggest either using HTTP 1.0 or a JRE that does not exhibit this problem. Using HTTP 1.0 will cause the connections to not be reused (call HttpMethod.setHttp11(false) ). Using a 1.4.1 (at least for me) will cause recoverable exceptions that will get handed by the method. Any other thoughts on this would be appreciated.

RE: connections on pool close unexpectedly
Hello Sergio, Sorry my response has taken so long. Could you be more specific about how you are using HttpClient and what is failing? In particular the following would be good: - a piece of example code that demonstrates how you are using HttpClient, if this example could actually reproduce the problem that would be great. - a stack trace, etc. of the error you are seeing - a log from httpclient when you encounter this problem, see http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient/logging.html You should not need to manage the HttpConnection manually. In general you should not be using the HttpConnection directly at all. All of this should be handled by HttpMethod, HttpClient and the connection manager. FYI, I will not being checking my mail again until tomorrow, so please be patient with me if I do not respond until then.

RE: connections on pool close unexpectedly
Just one more question then, before ill try to correct it myself, im assuming that the connections are been pooled inside the multhreadedmanager so as to improve performance. The only problem im facing is that the manager doesnt realize the connection is broken and i cant find any method to tell it, so the connection is forever broken at the pool and no matter the attemps i do it is always used first with the expected failure. Is there any method to expire the connection fotever or should i always create a new HttpClient so that i can use a new pool? If it doesnt i could try solving this problem by automatically deleting a connection which had thrown an IOException (then a reconnect would work) or making a method to expunge it out of the pool.

connections on pool close unexpectedly
Hello, I am having problems with HttpClient 2.0-alpha3 when i try to pool it. After the first call to stablish a connection against a server i usually can work with the client for 1 minue requetsing new pages. But after that minute i think the connecion is been closed somehow because any new attempt to retrieve any file at the host is rejcted instantly with the message BrokenPipe. Afetr logging it the problem arises just after the first attemt to write the HTTP header for the request so i suppose it is closed somehow either by the client or the server and the client always attemps to write to the same stream. Thanks for your time.
