>Number: 3056 >Category: os-windows >Synopsis: The proxy crashes when a send failure occurs >Confidential: no >Severity: non-critical >Priority: medium >Responsible: apache >State: open >Class: sw-bug >Submitter-Id: apache >Arrival-Date: Wed Sep 23 13:50:00 PDT 1998 >Last-Modified: >Originator: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Organization: apache >Release: 1.3.2 >Environment: Windows 98, using the Apache 1.3.2 binary for Win32. >Description: The error occurs close to the end of the function ap_proxy_send_fb. When a send failure occurs, and the proxy decides to abort the send, it calls ap_pclosef(c->req->pool, c->fp->fd) but at this point, c->fp is null, so we get an access violation. This happens whether or not you have caching turned on. >How-To-Repeat: LoadModule the proxy and then browse through the proxy, making sure to press stop a lot and to click on links very quickly, without giving the current page time to load in completely. I found that doing this with Netscape 4.04 at www.cnn.com or www.w3.org produced the error within the first 3 or 4 minutes of browsing. This behaviour is very consistent. >Fix:
