Apache 2.2.3 mod_proxy not flushing EOS
I've rec'd a report via private email that
2.2.3 and mod_proxy are not correctly
flushing EOS when streaming...
"1.) When an IE browser requests a page, the server starts serving
real-time data as chunks.
2.) The response header has a Transfer-Encoding of "chunked". Each
chunk
is written as following:
<size of chunk in hex>CRLF<real-time data>CRLF
3.) Server automatically ends the response in about a minute by
sending
a zero-sized chunk (eos) as:
0CRLFCRLF"
what they see is:
"(1) After the apache server receives the chunk end, it keeps
sending a
stream of 0CRLF bytes to the client, until the connection is timed-
out.
We discovered that the size of this stream was about 8K."
I can't recreate this nor can I find anything matching
it in Bugzilla.
