Hi Folks, I'm trying to get ProxyTimeout to work and having no luck. I've set up 2 Apache instances in my network. These are Apache 2.0.59 servers built on a 64 bit Redhat EL4 box. On the first, I've just added the following directives: ProxyTimeout 2 ProxyPass /cgi-bin http://<myotherhost>/cgi-bin/ On the second machine, I have the following simple CGI: #!/bin/sh sleep 30 echo Content-type: text/html echo echo "<HTML><HEAD>" echo "<TITLE>Hello</TITLE>" echo "</HEAD><BODY>" echo "Hello" echo "</BODY></HTML>" Why doesn't this timeout? For 'fun', I' fiddled with the code, namely proxy_http.c, right before the call to ap_proxy_connect_to_backend, I reduce the value of 'timeout' in the conf struct by a factor of 10 (so from 2000000 to 200000, etc) each request. As I reload the page, nothing different happens: each request takes 30 secs to finally, successfully return... until I finally get down to '200'. Then, I finally get a 502, BAD GATEWAY error. So at that tiny timeout (200 microsecs?), I'm guessing the low level connect times out. So in some regards, timeout is working. I did find what I think is a bug in the merge_proxy_config function... although it merges the 'timeout' field member in the config structure, it's not merging the 'timeout_set' member. However, fixing that did not resolve my issue. :( Is there something wrong with my test? Thanks, Ron
