too many follow-up requests problem

[MetaiR]

hello,
recording to this issue it looks like OkHttp has a problem with status code 408.
just want to put it here to be fixed.

[yschimke]

Can you provide a sample of the response headers you are sending with the 408? Or a reproduction test case?

There is changed handling of 408 in 3.10, which has not yet been released. I don't think it fixes it however. #3753 But even if that doesn't help you can see examples in that PR of how to make a reproduction test case.

Also relevant is a fix in August for 408 handling #3500

@yschimke
something like this

General:
Request URL:http://exampledomain:port/api
Request Method:GET
Status Code:408
Remote Address:exampledomain:port
Referrer Policy:no-referrer-when-downgrade

---

Response-Headers:
Access-Control-Allow-Credentials:true
Access-Control-Allow-Origin:http://example-server-ip:port
Access-Control-Expose-Headers:Set-Cookie
Content-Language:en
Content-Length:X
Content-Type:text/html;charset=utf-8
Date:Tue, 06 Feb 2018 23:12:09 GMT
Server:Apache TomEE
Vary:Origin

I'm not quite sure because we changed the status code but just status code and other things are remained so it should like the above (I copied the exact response from chrome, hope it's become useful)

Fixed in 3.10.

it still happens on version 3.14.9
@OverRide
public Request authenticate(Route route, Response response) throws IOException {
// Request a new access token if needed
if (!isTokenStillValid()) {
try {
getAccessToken();
} catch (HttpException | ApiException e) {
log.error("Error authenticating request {}", e.getMessage());
throw new IOException(e.getCause());
}
}
if(response.request().header("Authorization") != null && response.request().header("Authorization").equals(token.getValue()))
return null;
Request request = response.request().newBuilder().removeHeader("Authorization").build();

	return request.newBuilder().addHeader("Authorization", "Bearer " + token.getValue()).build();
	
}
