Hello,

I have a web application written using lwt and ocsigen that needs to get data
using https.

In order to do that, I use the Http_client.Convenience module from Ocamlnet, and
use Lwt.detach to perform the call (there probably is a smater way to do this, I
am open to any suggestion). The http call is performed and the data is
displayed, but then the server crashed, apparently because of a segfault.

here is the code for a test eliom module that reproduce the problem, compiled
using

ocamlfind ocamlc -c -thread -package
equeue-ssl,netclient,lwt,lwt.preemptive,ocsigen test_server.ml

Cheers


-Pierre
