redirect returning 200(ok)?
I have deployed the HTTP-Client in my application. (jpodder.com)
I am generally very happy with features and performance of HTTP-Client.
I have this URL which is treated as a redirect by Internet Explorer, but when passed to
HTTP client returns a 200 OK. For sure this link is a redirect, but I would expect a 3xx code,
to get the new location (And file name).
This is the URL:
http://musiclink.abstrakt.hu/?action=listen&id=768
Am I overlooking something?
How do I get the redirect location/URL from a 200OK?
Is it it possible to debug and see the HTTP response?
Thank You / Christophe

Christophe,
Please note that redirect to another URL may be executed using
JavaScript code embedded in the original HTML page. Unlike IE HttpClient
doesn't process the content it retrieves

HttpClient handles some redirects automatically. If you don't want
that, use HttpMethod.setFollowRedirects(false)

You don't ;-)

You can enable the wire log. For instructions, see
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient/logging.html
hope that helps,
