The Apache Commons HttpClient has been deprecated for a while and removed from Jenkins. See e.g. [this ticket](https://issues.jenkins.io/browse/JENKINS-69990?jql=project%20%3D%20JENKINS%20AND%20component%20%3D%20checkmarx-plugin) for a similar issue with another plug-in.
Due to this, notifications back to Phabricator/Phorge now fail with the following Exception:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpMethod at java.base/java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:476) at jenkins.util.URLClassLoader2.findClass(URLClassLoader2.java:35) at java.base/java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:589) at java.base/java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:522) Caused: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/commons/httpclient/HttpMethod at com.uber.jenkins.phabricator.PhabricatorNotifier.getUberallsClient(PhabricatorNotifier.java:303) at com.uber.jenkins.phabricator.PhabricatorNotifier.perform(PhabricatorNotifier.java:136) at jenkins.tasks.SimpleBuildStep.perform(SimpleBuildStep.java:123) at org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.steps.CoreStep$Execution.run(CoreStep.java:101) at org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.steps.CoreStep$Execution.run(CoreStep.java:71) at org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.steps.SynchronousNonBlockingStepExecution.lambda$start$0(SynchronousNonBlockingStepExecution.java:47) at java.base/java.util.concurrent.Executors$RunnableAdapter.call(Executors.java:515) at java.base/java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.run(FutureTask.java:264) at java.base/java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.runWorker(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:1128) at java.base/java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:628) at java.base/java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:829)
E.g. in such a step:
post { always { script { step([$class: 'PhabricatorNotifier', commentOnSuccess: false, commentWithConsoleLinkOnFailure: true]) } } }
A plug-in exists for version 3.x of httpclient, but not for the version 4.x used by this plug-in.
