[jira] [Updated] (JENA-1263) Configure HTTP client to follow 303 redirects

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JENA-1263?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Aaron Coburn updated JENA-1263:
-------------------------------
    Description: 
When calling RDFDataMgr.read(Model model, String uri), the underlying HTTP client does not appear to follow 303 redirects. For example:

{code:java}
Model m = createDefaultModel();
RDFDataMgr.read(m, "http://purl.org/dc/terms/");
{code}

{code}
org.apache.jena.riot.RiotException: Failed to determine the content type: (URI=http://purl.org/dc/terms/ : stream=text/html)
{code}

A work-around is to add a static block with a custom HTTP client like so:

{code:java}
static {
    HttpOp.setDefaultHttpClient(
            HttpClientBuilder.create().setRedirectStrategy(
                    new LaxRedirectStrategy()).build());
}
{code}

By default the Apache HTTP client follows 301 and 302 redirects (but not 303 redirects), but the W3C recommends using 303 redirects for publishing RDF vocabularies (https://www.w3.org/TR/swbp-vocab-pub/), which is what the Dublin Core vocabularies use.

This sort of redirect handling worked previously, e.g. Jena 3.1.0; it would be convenient if the underlying HTTP client simply followed the 303 redirects.
