Hi,

Can I check if the following is an intended behaviour?

We run Aolserver 4.5.1 on Debian Squeeze.

The behaviour we are seeing is, when a large cookie is sent in a request,
the nsd daemon doesn't seem to reply at all.
(This also occurs with a large number of smaller cookies. ~50)

I constructed a test case by creating a cookie file containing 1 cookie (as
attached) which is very long (probably illegally long) and used wget as
follows:

 wget --server-response --load-cookies cookies_test_single2.txt
http://www.domain.co.uk:8001/tcl/search.tcl?search=test

Then wget reports "HTTP request sent, awaiting response... No data
received." and retries.
If I remove a couple of characters from the cookie, it will work fine.
(If anyone wanted to try it then obviously the domain in the cookie file
would need to be changed to match yours.)

This first manifested itself with the nsd daemon running behind nginx.
nginx would return a 502 with the error "upstream prematurely closed
connection while reading response header from upstream". We then made the
request directly to the nsd daemon's port and got no response at all.

So seems like I'm hitting an upper limit on cookie size which is fine.. but
should we not get a error code back from the nsd daemon if that was the
case, or is this working as designed?

If not working as designed, could this be a config problem on the server
side?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Regards,
