D'oh! I forgot to cc the list with my reply, so here it is again... According to Jonathan Schlackl: > Thanks for the tip - I was running -vvvvv and that would show me the > repeating "chunk size" message, but nothing else really.
OK, that tells me it may be hanging in HtHTTP::ReadChunkedBody(). We've had reports before of problems in that code, but nothing solid to pin it down. A stack backtrace might help, as would any info you have on the server you're indexing, including the headers for the file that caused the hang (you'll find them in the -vvvvv output before all the repeating chunk size messages at the end). > Although I was unable to come up with a solution for my handler, I was able > to use the latest snapshot of HTDig which has the "use_doc_date" directive. > I wrote a little Perl script to use as an include to scan the filesystem to > report the last modified date of the file - the trick is that it also scans > the requested file for include files and returns the last modified date > based on the last mod dates of those files too.....very fun stuff :) Which latest snapshot are you using? If you're using 3.1.6, it should side-step the problem with chunked message bodies because 3.1.x only support HTTP 1.0, not 1.1. However, if I understand correctly, 3.2.0b4 still has this problem with ReadChunkedBody. Please correct me if I'm wrong. If the latest 3.2.0b4 snapshot doesn't hang the way the older ones did, I'd like to know. I don't think the HTTP handler has been modified in a few months now, so I wouldn't expect a difference. Knowing the full names of the tar files for the snapshots that work or fail would help. -- Gilles R.
