Hi all,

I've got an intermittent problem with HTTPService fetching data from
Apache2/PHP5 server over an SSL connection.

Sometimes (2-6 out of 200 requests) the response from server never
reaches the client back. Server logs show that the response has been
sent. The problem is in the browser or in my gut feeling in the
HTTPService itself.

I've already done the following:

1. variable URL like page.php?nocache=<random number>
2. PHP sends a header which tells not to cache the response
3. new HTTPService object is created for each request (this step gave
me the best improvement)

This problem happens on ANY browser at the same rate (IE6,IE7, FF,
Safari).

The whole flex application is running over an SSL connection and all
the HTTPService calls are made to the relative server addresses.


I should admit, that in test environment (localhost) where we don't
have SSL connection it never happened. On the other hand localhost
connection and ADSL links to the live site are quite different things.


Does anybody know any ways of overcoming this problem?

Thanks in advance!


Cheers,
Dmitri.
