    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCORE-318?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15307895#comment-15307895 ]

----------------------------------------

Since this is not yet available in a stable release, here is how I worked around this for httpasyncclient 4.1.1, without having to fork/patch httpclient: https://gist.github.com/tomfitzhenry/159b793bce9e4da4ad3c13aede869d5c

> Code will not allow connection reuse if Content-Length header is not present.
> If the request was a HEAD request and the response is a 404, this header is not present, but HttpClient should still be able to re-use the connection.
> It should be very easy to add special case code when dealing with responses to HEAD requests.
