I need to use commons-httpclient-3.1.jar library even it is now end of life.
I am trying to do a simple http GET from url http://www.apache.org/ via proxy server address "10.100.1.44" with proxy port "8080" which requires no credential whatsoever.
Below is my sample code.
import java.io.IOException;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.DefaultHttpMethodRetryHandler;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpClient;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpException;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpStatus;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.UsernamePasswordCredentials;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.auth.AuthScope;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.methods.GetMethod;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.params.HttpMethodParams;
public class HttpClientTutorial {
private static String url = "http://www.apache.org/";
public static void main(String[] args) {
// Create an instance of HttpClient.
HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
// Create a method instance.
GetMethod method = new GetMethod(url);
// Provide custom retry handler is necessary
method.getParams().setParameter(HttpMethodParams.RETRY_HANDLER,
new DefaultHttpMethodRetryHandler(3, false));
try {
// setting proxy
client.getParams().setAuthenticationPreemptive(true);
client.getState().setProxyCredentials(
new AuthScope("10.100.1.44", 8080),
new UsernamePasswordCredentials("", ""));
// Execute the method.
int statusCode = client.executeMethod(method);
if (statusCode != HttpStatus.SC_OK) {
System.err.println("Method failed: " + method.getStatusLine());
}
// Read the response body.
byte[] responseBody = method.getResponseBody();
// Deal with the response.
// Use caution: ensure correct character encoding and is not binary
// data
System.out.println(new String(responseBody));
} catch (HttpException e) {
System.err.println("Fatal protocol violation: " + e.getMessage());
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
System.err.println("Fatal transport error: " + e.getMessage());
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
// Release the connection.
method.releaseConnection();
}
}
}
However when I run the code I get exception thrown which is
14 ส.ค. 2556 13:11:28 org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpMethodDirector authenticateHost
WARNING: Required credentials not available for BASIC <any realm>@www.apache.org:80

Could someone tell me what I did wrong as I am new to this HttpClient library however I need to use it as I have no intention to use HttpComponents library?
Now I have found a solution to this problem. Please refer to the code below.
import java.io.IOException;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.Credentials;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.DefaultHttpMethodRetryHandler;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpClient;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpException;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpStatus;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.UsernamePasswordCredentials;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.auth.AuthScope;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.methods.GetMethod;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.params.HttpMethodParams;
public class HttpClientTutorial {
private static String url = "http://www.apache.org/";
public static void main(String[] args) {
// Create an instance of HttpClient.
HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
// Create a method instance.
GetMethod method = new GetMethod(url);
// Provide custom retry handler is necessary
method.getParams().setParameter(HttpMethodParams.RETRY_HANDLER,
new DefaultHttpMethodRetryHandler(3, false));
try {
// setting proxy
client.getHostConfiguration().setProxy("10.100.1.44", 8080);
// Execute the method.
int statusCode = client.executeMethod(method);
if (statusCode != HttpStatus.SC_OK) {
System.err.println("Method failed: " + method.getStatusLine());
}
// Read the response body.
byte[] responseBody = method.getResponseBody();
// Deal with the response.
// Use caution: ensure correct character encoding and is not binary
// data
System.out.println(new String(responseBody));
} catch (HttpException e) {
System.err.println("Fatal protocol violation: " + e.getMessage());
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
System.err.println("Fatal transport error: " + e.getMessage());
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
// Release the connection.
method.releaseConnection();
}
}
}
