[jira] [Commented] (HTTPCLIENT-1248) LaxRedirectStrategy converts
POST to GET and throws away body
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1248?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13473135#comment-13473135 ]

I would say this is the intended behavior. If in the context of your particular application POST redirects are OK, you probably should be using a custom redirect strategy.

> The LaxRedirectStrategy extends the DefaultRedirectStrategy. The DefaultAsyncRequestDirector calls _redirectStrategy.isRedirected()_ and LaxRedirectStrategy will return *true* on a POST. Then the director calls _redirectStrategy.getRedirect()_. The LaxRedirectStrategy doesn't implement this method so the one in the DefaultRedirectStrategy is called:
> {code}
> if (method.equalsIgnoreCase(HttpHead.METHOD_NAME)) {
> return new HttpHead(uri);
> } else {
> return new HttpGet(uri);
> }
> {code}
> This turns the POST into a GET on redirect. IMHO the LaxRedirectStrategy should be
> {code}
> public HttpUriRequest getRedirect(
> final HttpRequest request,
> final HttpResponse response,
> final HttpContext context) throws ProtocolException {
> URI uri = getLocationURI(request, response, context);
> String method = request.getRequestLine().getMethod();
> if (method.equalsIgnoreCase(HttpHead.METHOD_NAME)) {
> return new HttpHead(uri);
> else if (method.equalsIgnoreCase(HttpPost.METHOD_NAME)) {
> return new HttpPost(uri);
> } else if (method.equalsIgnoreCase(HttpGet.METHOD_NAME)) {
> return new HttpGet(uri);
> } else {
> throw new IllegalStateException("Redirect called on un-redirectable http method: " + method);
> }
> {code}
