```
                    try {
                        int numOfFlowFiles =
serverProtocol.getPort().transferFlowFiles(peer, serverProtocol);
                        logger.debug("finished transferring flow files,
numOfFlowFiles={}", numOfFlowFiles);
                        if (numOfFlowFiles < 1) {
                            // There was no flow file to transfer. Throw
this exception to stop responding with SEE OTHER.
                            throw new
WebApplicationException(Response.Status.OK);
                        }
                    } catch (NotAuthorizedException | BadRequestException |
RequestExpiredException e) {
                        // Handshake is done outside of write() method, so
these exception wouldn't be thrown.
                        throw new IOException("Failed to process the
request.", e);
                    }
```

I’m not sure about what this means, other than what it says, that there is
nothing to transfer

Subject:  Unintelligible exception log for HTTP-200 response

Hi people,

We have a setup with 2 NiFi instances (here we name it "nifi-instance-1"
br/>and ""nifi-instance-2") in version 1.16.3 running in podman containers
br/>respectively in pods. In the log file of nifi-app.log we discover the
br/>following: <

2023-01-03 12:00:00,195 INFO [NiFi Web Server-46]

The full traceback is attached. The instances are running on the same
br/>machine and working properly. ""nifi-instance-1" has an output port
br/>configured as ""Remote connections (site-to-site)". "nifi-instance-2"
has br/>a Remote Process Group and is configuured to connect to br/>""
nifi-instance-1.de" via HTTPs to fetch the flow files. The connection
br/>between them and the sharing of floow files work as expected. Except
this br/>log message we don't underrstand.

The authorizations.xml of "nifi-instance-1" has this configuration,
br/>among other things, to allow the other instance to send/reeceive data:

<policy identifier="cbeec38a-0178-1000-77da-25e37ce5344e"
br/>resource="/data-transfer/output-ports/721c54f7-0185-1000-8cc8-d1a327e7a98f"
br/>action="W">
    <group identifier="1f68ef93-0176-1000-c949-f005799da72d"/>
</policy>
<policy identifier="2fe2ee5f-0174-1000-e61b-45137c67eac1"
br/>resource="/site-to-site" action="R">
    <group identifier="1f68ef93-0176-1000-c949-f005799da72d"/>
</policy>

The users.xml contains among other things this:

<group identifier="1f68ef93-0176-1000-c949-f005799da72d"
br/>name="nifi-instance-2">
    <user identifier="1f6ba22e-0176-1000-7b45-ec3ea6d38fe5"/>
</group>
<users>
    <user identifier="1f6ba22e-0176-1000-7b45-ec3ea6d38fe5" br/>identity="
nifi-instance-2.de"/>
</users>

"nifi-instance-2" has also the configuration for the /site-to-site
br/>resource to allow it for ""nifi-instance-1". But it should not be
br/>necessary for the occurrence of this log. <

As I said, the data exchange between them is working fine. We found this
br/>issue: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFFI-9752 and already
br/>deleted and recreated the output port, but without ssuccess.

The last output in the stack trace hypothesizes that there is something
br/>wrong with the permissions!!? But we are not sure. Do we miss anything?

Do you have any idea what the reason could be for this log? We guess, we
br/>can suppress the log in our logback config. But we wantt to figure out
br/>what the reason is :-) <

Kind regards
Fabian
