[jira] [Commented] (HTTPCLIENT-1406) https on port 80 over proxy caused the http client to go into an infinite loop

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1406?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13783735#comment-13783735 ] 

Oleg Kalnichevski commented on HTTPCLIENT-1406:
-----------------------------------------------

I do not understand what process is listening on port 80. Is it the proxy or the https server? Does this problem also affect HttpClient 4.3? 

At least some minimal details about the issue like a code snippet or a wire / context log of the session or preferably both would be quite helpful.
