Question

StackOverflow forced me to shorten the actual exception text. The full exception is:

HtmlUnit: Attempted to refresh a page using an ImmediateRefreshHandler which could have caused an OutOfMemoryError Please use WaitingRefreshHandler or ThreadedRefreshHandler instead.

Answer 1

This is a tricky solution to find, so I’m posting it here.

Simply create your own empty RefreshHandler:

    RefreshHandler rh = new RefreshHandler() {
        void handleRefresh( final Page page, final URL url, final int seconds ) {}
    }

Then attach it to your web client:

    client.setRefreshHandler(rh)

Note that I did this in Groovy, so you might have to tweak the syntax for Java.
