"HTTP/1.1 header parser received no bytes" when running with "runIde" (sandbox) Follow
Hi everybody, my custom IntelliJ plugin shall fire HTTP requests against an intranet server. The code works nicely in a test and also if I install the plugin in my "real" IntelliJ instance - but when running in the IDE sandbox, I keep getting "HTTP/1.1 header parser received no bytes" when trying to login (sending an HTTP POST request).
Is networking somehow restricted in the sandbox? I have already tried to turn off the firewall, no change. We are also behind a corporate proxy but that shouldn't matter, as it is an internal IP. I also thought about TLS problems (we are using a self signed certificate), but problems with the certificates usually result in a different exception (PKIX path building failed [...] unable to find valid certification path to requested target).
Do you have any ideas? Best regards!

Are the two instances the exact same IDE version, and both using the same Java Runtime? Also check system/VM parameters for any differences. What library do you use to issue HTTP requests?
Hello and thanks for the quick reply!
While collecting the info for my answer, I found out that indeed proxy settings were the issue (the proxy was used although it shouldn't have been). Problem solved!
Your request pointed me to the right direction. I didn't understand that the "sandbox" IDE has completely independent network settings from the host IDE and is not really a sandbox (in the sense of isolation).
https://plugins.jetbrains.com/docs/intellij/ide-development-instance.html could document that more clearly. It could also point out that the the "sandbox IDE" version can be configured via
intellij {version = '2021.3.2'
}
So thanks again and have a nice weekend!
