Hi,
I don't know how many of you have noticed things like this in the build logs:
12:25:45 Mar 04, 2020 11:25:45 AM org.apache.http.impl.execchain.RetryExec execute 12:25:45 INFO: I/O exception (org.apache.http.NoHttpResponseException) caught when processing request to {s}->https://download.eclipse.org:443: The target server failed to respond 12:25:45 Mar 04, 2020 11:25:45 AM org.apache.http.impl.execchain.RetryExec execute 12:25:45 INFO: Retrying request to {s}->https://download.eclipse.org:443
I'm a bit concerned about the cause of such exceptions. I've debugged where this happens in my Oomph environment. Specifically it happens in org.apache.http.impl.execchain.RetryExec.execute(HttpRoute, HttpRequestWrapper, HttpClientContext, HttpExecutionAware) when parsing the response header finds nothing with the following stack leading to the logged problem:

There will be two additional retries, and if those fail too, the repository will fail to load (or the artifact will fail to download). In my product catalog generator, I load a whole whack of repositories and this happens frequently enough that more often than not, one or more repositories fail to load. This concerns me because with 2 million users loading repositories (via updates or via the installer), a significant fraction might well run into this same problem.
When I use -Dorg.eclipse.ecf.provider.filetransfer.excludeContributors=org.eclipse.ecf.provider.filetransfer.httpclient45 to disable the provider for this implementation, I of course see no log entries nor do any repositories fail to load.
I'm starting to get the feeling that either a) the server is ill-behaved or b) there is a problem in the httpclient implementation. Perhaps some Keep-Alive header: is poor or not being respected by the implementation.
I saw something similar here where the server was blamed:

Does anyone have any ideas?

Ed
