03 / TASK AND FAILURE

claude-code/java-t1 #28 · read the task the agent was given
Claude Code wrote this java project from the task below. It does not run on a clean Ubuntu 22.04 machine as written.

Task given to the agent:

TASK: Static HTTP File Server

Write a program that serves static files over HTTP from a local directory, supporting directory listings, MIME type detection, caching headers, range requests for large files, and access logging.

FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENTS:
- Accept a directory path to serve as a command-line argument (default: current directory)
- Start an HTTP server on a configurable port via --port flag (default: 8080) and bind address via --host flag (default: 0.0.0.0)
- Serve files with correct MIME types auto-detected from file extensions (HTML, CSS, JS, images, fonts, JSON, XML, PDF, video, audio, etc.)
- Generate directory listing pages when accessing a directory URL, showing file names, sizes, modification dates, and file type icons, with a --no-listing flag to disable this
- Support index files: automatically serve index.html or index.htm if present in a directory
- Implement HTTP caching headers: ETag based on file content hash, Last-Modified from file timestamp, and Cache-Control with configurable max-age via --cache flag (default: 3600 seconds)
- Support HTTP Range requests for partial content delivery (needed for video/audio streaming and resumable downloads)
- Log all requests to console in Common Log Format (CLF): remote address, timestamp, method, path, status code, response size, and response time
- Save access logs to a file via --log flag
- Support CORS headers via --cors flag to enable cross-origin requests (configurable allowed origins)
- Support HTTPS via --ssl flag with --cert and --key flags for certificate and private key file paths
- Print server startup information: URL, served directory, features enabled
- If no directory is given, create a sample directory with HTML, CSS, JS, image, and text files, then start serving them and print the URL to access each
- Handle errors: port already in use, permission denied, symlink traversal prevention, and graceful shutdown on SIGINT

Create a complete Java project for a clean Ubuntu 22.04 machine with only JDK 17+ installed. Include:
- Source code
- pom.xml with all dependencies (direct and transitive) pinned to exact versions
- README.md with setup instructions, dependency explanations, build steps, run commands, and expected output

Written by Claude Code (study run M1T1P28L2). It failed as written and was repaired by changing only its environment.

Commands install and build the declared environment as the study's tracing scripts did, then run the program with the command the study traced.

Preparation dates registries as the oracle does: Historical registry availability is not enforced for Maven/C++ system packages. Maven updatePolicy controls refresh frequency, not publication date.

# Static HTTP File Server - Java (Javalin)

A static HTTP file server built with Javalin that serves files with MIME type detection,
directory listing, caching, range requests, CORS, and optional HTTPS support.

## Dependencies

- Javalin 5.6.3
- SLF4J 2.0.11

## Build

```bash
mvn clean package
```

## Usage

```bash
# Basic usage (serves ./public on port 8080)
java -jar target/static-file-server-1.0.0.jar

# Custom directory and port
