Apache httpclient read timeout
Hi,
We have an application on Servicemix that uses ApacheHTTPCLient within it to
handle http based communication. In our flows, we have defined http
endpoints with a socket timeout of 30 seconds and this usually works except
for the case where we establish a connection with the supplier and the
response from the supplier is very very slow. We have seen that such
responses could come after 120 seconds eventhough the socket timeout is set
to 30 seconds. Is there an option to set a different timeout like a read
timeout to handle such situations? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Vijay

Vijay,
This is perfectly normal. As long as the connection keeps on sending
more packets every 30 seconds, the socket timeout will not fire.

There is no such parameter. It is up to the consumer of the response
InputStreram to control the timeout value on that connection.

FWIW, you could take a look at the SimpleHttpFetcher class in the Bixo
project.
This supports a "minimum response rate" config setting, which will
abort a request if the average response rate drops below a threshold.

No, there is no such option.

Oleg,
That's right, but is there a way I can do a "request" timeout? Any option in
HTTPCLient that would abort a request after a time interval elapses? (time
interval defined by the timeout)
