[BUG Report Tomcat 3.2] Reset connection with client
os : windows NT
servlet container : tomcat 3.2 release
Client wants to re-use socket connection
for multiple requests from server - it is
actually a feature of HTTP 1.1. This saves
time on creating socket object, making
TCP connection.
What Tomcat is doing unlike other web servers
we have ( Apache, Weblogic) is resetting connection
after every request. The sequence which is seen in
the network is the following:
Client -> Connect
Client -> GET(socket NNN)
Tomcat -> Response
Client -> GET(socket NNN)
Tomcat -> Reset connection <- BUG is HERE!
Client -> Connect
Tomcat -> Bind
Client -> GET(socket MMM)
Tomcat -> Response
You probably do not notice this bug with IE or Netscape
because they make a new connection on
every page reload.
