http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=18266 https file upload via proxy Summary: https file upload via proxy Product: Apache httpd-1.3 Version: 1.3.27 Platform: Sun OS/Version: Solaris Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: Other Component: mod_proxy AssignedTo: [email protected] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Using mod_proxy as part of the 1.3.27 distribution of apache. When trying to upload a file to a https website via an apache proxy, the browser fails. Different browsers give different errors - MSIE gives a 'Cannot find server or DNS Error' page, netscape v4.8 says 'connection reset by peer'. (I've noticed that MSIE always gives that error no matter what the problem.) Seems odd given that https proxying is completely transparent. i.e. it just connects the client->proxy connection with the proxy->server with no interference, right? This error only occurs with file uploads - i.e. when the request buffer is larger than usual. This error occurs when using a apache as a proxy to another apache internal server and also when using an external site running Microsoft-IIS/5.0. I wish i could give a url to recreate this bug but of course the pages are secure for a good reason :) A way to recreate this page is to host the following html on a https server (called test.html) and then use an apache server as a proxy from your browser: <form action="test.html" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <input type="file" name="test_file"/> <br/> <input type="submit"/> </form> If you get a "Method not allowed" then that is fine because the file has been uploaded to a page which is not dynamic but at least the http request has finished in that case. The error when proxying appears so quickly, that I am sure that there has not been enough time to send the entire request. To whomever looks after these bugs: thanks - apache has the least bugs in any software I have ever found. I've been using it for years and this is my first bug :-) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
