G'day! Here are the latest results from my HTTPService problems saga.
I isolated the problem to the Apache2.x/mod_ssl2.x and HTTPService configuration. HTTPService works very stable with Apache 1.3/mod_ssl but with Apache2 SSL connection is vulnerable to network errors. With full logging turned on everywhere(wireshark/apache/PIX firewall) I could see that sometimes due to the network errors connection gets into the state when both sides are doing nothing, waiting for each other and then one of the sides disconnects on time out. Same network errors are not a problem for the browser itself or during the session with Apache1 - connection recovery happens very quick and I have not got any timeout so far. Cheers, Dmitri.
