When trying to install or update a plugin, the following error occurs:
java.io.IOException: Server returned HTTP response code: 500 for URL: http://updates.jenkins-ci.org/update-center.json?uctest at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.getInputStream(HttpURLConnection.java:1290) at hudson.model.UpdateCenter$UpdateCenterConfiguration.testConnection(UpdateCenter.java:709) at hudson.model.UpdateCenter$UpdateCenterConfiguration.checkUpdateCenter(UpdateCenter.java:562) at hudson.model.UpdateCenter$ConnectionCheckJob.run(UpdateCenter.java:847) at java.util.concurrent.Executors$RunnableAdapter.call(Executors.java:441) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask$Sync.innerRun(FutureTask.java:303) at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.run(FutureTask.java:138) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.runTask(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:886) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:908) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:619)
The proxy settings have been entered in the update manager, but it still cannot connect.
Having looked into the code, we have been able to reproduce the error from a standalone page running on the same server. When we changed the code on our standalone page to use apache commons HttpClient to make the connection, it worked perfectly and gave us a 200 response code back.
It would be a nice improvement if there was an option in the update center to use HttpClient instead of the current method used.
