For some years now, I've been using a TCPCLIENT stage to move data from an HTTP server to CMS. A couple months ago our network was reconfigured; an iPlanet server (IIRC) was replaced by Apache. HTTP transfers began to stall after a couple megabytes.
I reported this to our sysprog, who readily reproduced the behavior, _except_ that when he enabled tracing the problem vanished. Timing dependent? I got the idea that if I used a proxy it might change the timing enough to circumvent the problem. That worked for the couple months, until another reconfiguration removed the proxy I was using. I can use YA proxy, but it does not appear to circumvent the problem. Has anyone else seen anything like this? Known problem? How can I report it if we can't trace it? How do I find pipelines version to report it? Is there a library distribution I might try instead? Where do I get it? Many years ago, I was using RXSOCKET before I switched to pipelines. I might need to find that code and dust it of. Etc. Thanks, gil
