Hi all,

Since I updated Java from 19.0.2 to 20.0.1, I got some errors with connection idle shutdown or closed stream usage when trying to send HTTP requests with java.net.http.HttpClient.

The two following errors are happening. I suspect those are linked even if they don't trigger together.
1. java.net.http.HttpConnectTimeoutException: HTTP connection idle, no active streams. Shutting down.
at jdk.internal.net.http.HttpClientImpl.send(HttpClientImpl.java:890) ~[java.net.http:?]
2. java.io.IOException: Stream 9 cancelled
at jdk.internal.net.http.Stream.cancel(Stream.java:1229) ~[java.net.http:?]
The detailed stacks are copied below.

Error 1. is caused by an idle connection trying to be used to send the request from what I understood from the code. Error 2. despite saying it is a cancelled streamed is actually happening when the stream is closed if I haven't missed something in the code.
I suspect either the idle connections are not always properly discarded to create a new one or there is a race condition when discarding the idle connections.

I was not able so far to find where this could happen and I hope you could help me to find where the problem lies.

Thank you in advance for your help,

Best regards,

Nicolas Henneaux
