Thanks Daniel. But up-gradation to latest version is not our immediate plan. We shall be doing it in next major release of our application which is planned in the next 6 months. It would be a great help if you can help me fixing this issue in this release(7.12.1) itself. Thanks a lot!! ------------------------------------------------------------------- List admin: https://cool.haxx.se/list/listinfo/curl-library Etiquette: https://curl.haxx.se/mail/etiquette.html
