[jira] [Commented] (HTTPCLIENT-1325) Using a HttpRequest that is not an HttpUriRequest when host in URI is not target host results in an invalid request

["Oleg Kalnichevski (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1325?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13583219#comment-13583219 ] 

Oleg Kalnichevski commented on HTTPCLIENT-1325:
-----------------------------------------------

Francois-Xavier,
This is not entirely unintentional. This feature was added in 4.3 to enable HttpClient execute arbitrary requests including those with invalid request URIs (See HTTPCLIENT-900).

>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: HttpClient
>    Affects Versions: 4.3 Alpha1
>            Reporter: Francois-Xavier Bonnet

> Using the following code:
>         CloseableHttpClient httpClient = HttpClientBuilder.create().build();
>         HttpHost httpHost = new HttpHost("127.0.0.1", 80, "http");
>         HttpRequest request = new BasicHttpRequest("GET", "http://www.foo.com/test");
>         httpClient.execute(httpHost, request);
> HttpClient sends this request:
>         GET http://www.foo.com/test HTTP/1.1
>         Host: 127.0.0.1:80
>         Connection: Keep-Alive
>         User-Agent: Apache-HttpClient/4.3-alpha2-SNAPSHOT (java 1.5)
>         Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate
> The host header is not consistent with the request URI. This is due to org.apache.http.impl.execchain.ProtocolExec:
>         HttpHost target = null;
>         if (virtualHost != null) {
>             target = virtualHost;
>         } else {
>             final HttpRequest original = request.getOriginal();
>             if (original instanceof HttpUriRequest) {
>                 final URI uri = ((HttpUriRequest) original).getURI();
>                 if (uri.isAbsolute()) {
>                     target = new HttpHost(uri.getHost(), uri.getPort(), uri.getScheme());
>                 }
>             }
>         }
>         if (target == null) {
>             target = route.getTargetHost();
>         }
> So for a HttpUriRequest the host is taken from the URI but for other requests it is taken from the target server.
> I think it should be taken from the target server only if it cannot be determined from the URI (non-absolute URI).
> I will fix this.
