Summary: ab does not handle 304 Not Modified correctly in a keep-
alive connection
Product: Apache httpd-1.3
Version: HEAD
Platform: Other
OS/Version: other
Status: NEW
Keywords: PatchAvailable
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: Other
AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
ReportedBy: chris@mysociety.org
ab relies on the Content-Length: header to figure out how to handle a response
during a keepalive connection. If a server fails to send this header with a 304
Not Modified response, ab will hang (it is waiting for the server to terminate
the connection, whereas the server is waiting for the client's next request).
There's no requirement for a 304 response to carry a Content-Length: so this is
ab's problem.
Patch to fix this here:
http://bitter.ukcod.org.uk/~chris/tmp/20060612/ab-keep-alive-handle-304.patch
(yes, the patch is nasty, but it's in keeping with the rest of ab's header
parsing code...).

I've committed a patch for this to trunk in r413861 using a slightly different
approach. Many thanks!
