http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=42636 Summary: Apache will crash if SSL and mod_deflate are used and a lot of content is requested twice Product: Apache httpd-2 Version: 2.2.4 Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows XP Status: NEW Severity: critical Priority: P2 Component: mod_ssl AssignedTo: [email protected] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This problem started with FPDF output taking down the web server. It doesn't seem to be related to PHP though, but it is possible. I tracked it down to a more general thing: 1. Enable mod_ssl 2. Enable mod_deflate and use "SetOutputFilter DEFLATE" 3. Create a PHP file and add: <? sleep (1); ?> followed by a big chunk of text. For example I used a base64 encoded PDF file, but it also works with any text and binary content. My test file is about 2 MB in size, but it also worked with less. 4. Now request that in your Browser (I used Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.4) Gecko/20070515 Firefox/2.0.0.4) and hit the refresh button (after half a second) before the response arrives. As an alternative you can also simply change the page or close your browser window. 5. Apache will crash now (or after about 5 seconds.) - The error log is empty - This can always be reproduced. Not that it also works without the sleep, but is harder to reproduce then. I guess it also works with smaller files, but, again, it will be harder to reproduce, since the response arrives to fast then. - It won't happen if either SSL or compression is not used. -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
