For troubleshooting purposes, I split the route into 2, one with just sending HTTP message and another one doing reading from file + transformations. When I call the HTTP part only, it does try only once, like you said.
But when I run the whole route from the file: point, if exception happens during last HTTP call – it will keep retrying 20+ times (maybe it’s infinite loop, I just didn’t wait longer). PS. log(“${body}”) doesn’t print HTTP reply body in case of exception, but HTTP request body. Still didn’t figure out how to print a reply if a call failed. onException(Exception.class) .log("${exception.message}"); .log("${body}"); from("file:" + instructionsFolder) .to("xslt:xslt/oracleerp-to-payment.xslt") .split(xpath("//Payment")) .marshal().xmljson() .to("direct:sendPayment") ; from("direct:sendPayment") .setHeader(Exchange.HTTP_METHOD, constant("POST")) .setHeader(Exchange.CONTENT_TYPE, constant("application/json")) .to("http://localhost:8100/api/v1/myendpoint") .log("${body}") It keeps repeating this message in log: 2016-10-13 07:58:27.695 WARN 63708 --- [acle-financials] o.a.c.c.file.GenericFileOnCompletion : Rollback file strategy: org.apache.camel.component.file.strategy.GenericFileRenameProcessStrategy@3d0605e8 for file: GenericFile[test.xml] 2016-10-13 07:58:28.210 INFO 63708 --- [acle-financials] net.sf.json.xml.XMLSerializer : Using default type string 2016-10-13 07:58:28.211 INFO 63708 --- [acle-financials] route1 : {"MyJSON: 1212121 "} 2016-10-13 07:58:28.212 INFO 63708 --- [acle-financials] o.a.c.httpclient.HttpMethodDirector : I/O exception (java.net.ConnectException) caught when processing request: Connection refused 2016-10-13 07:58:28.212 INFO 63708 --- [acle-financials] o.a.c.httpclient.HttpMethodDirector : Retrying request 2016-10-13 07:58:28.213 INFO 63708 --- [acle-financials] o.a.c.httpclient.HttpMethodDirector : I/O exception (java.net.ConnectException) caught when processing request: Connection refused 2016-10-13 07:58:28.213 INFO 63708 --- [acle-financials] o.a.c.httpclient.HttpMethodDirector : Retrying request 2016-10-13 07:58:28.213 INFO 63708 --- [acle-financials] o.a.c.httpclient.HttpMethodDirector : I/O exception (java.net.ConnectException) caught when processing request: Connection refused 2016-10-13 07:58:28.213 INFO 63708 --- [acle-financials] o.a.c.httpclient.HttpMethodDirector : Retrying request 2016-10-13 07:58:28.213 INFO 63708 --- [acle-financials] route2 : Connection refused 2016-10-13 07:58:28.214 ERROR 63708 --- [acle-financials] o.a.camel.processor.DefaultErrorHandler : Failed delivery for (MessageId: ID-raptor-local-61354-1476370696838-0-31 on ExchangeId: ID-raptor-local-61354-1476370696838-0-32).

If that is the full log I suspect that is one try, try enabling debug logging or checking the Web servers access togs to confirm. The first two are info then the error stating it tried once.
