Hi,

when I run the ivy test suite on my computer at home, the 
iBiblioResolverTest.testErrorReport errors.

The error happens on line 251 :

ResolvedModuleRevision rmr = resolver.getDependency(new 
DefaultDependencyDescriptor(mrid,
                false), _data);

What happens on that line is that :

- the proxy that I use at home produces an HTML5 error report about the 
http://unknown.host.comx 
- this error report is consumed by ivy as if it was a POM file and generates 
this exception :

java.text.ParseException: Already seen doctype.
at 
org.apache.ivy.plugins.parser.m2.PomModuleDescriptorParser.newParserException(PomModuleDescriptorParser.java:375)

One workaround to deal with that is to surround the call to 
resolver.getDependency with try/catch and also to remove the last assertion :
assertLogContains("tried 
http://unknown.host.comx/org/apache/commons-fileupload/1.0/commons-fileupload-1.0.jar”)

This of course is a workaround.

Is it also an intelligent solution ? 

Is the normal behavior when trying to access a non existent host name to get an 
UnknownHostException ?


Regards,

Antoine
