Google didn't help me. It would be really great if you help me to sort this out. Thanks.

Answer 1

I solved a similar problem by restricting the request to use HTTP 1, see:

OkHttpClient okHttpClient = new OkHttpClient();
okHttpClient.setProtocols(Arrays.asList(Protocol.HTTP_1_1));

Answer 2

Looks like a bug in either OkHtttp or your webserver's implementation of SPDY or HTTP/2. Upgrade to OkHttp/2.1. If that doesn't fix it, open an issue on OkHttp's issue tracker & include the hostname of the server that's causing you grief.
