Don't make us guess your problem!!! ---------------------------------------------------------------- We just discovered that we have a client program (not developed by us, so we can't change how it works) that is trying to interact with our servlets running under JServ. The client's requests are failing because the client is sending chunked transfer encodings (header Transfer-Encoding= chunked). For those unfamiliar with the HTTP 1.1 spec this means that the body (in this case the body of a PUT method), doesn't contain a Content-Length header, and instead sends the body of the request as a series of chunks, each proceeded by a size marker. The server then is responsible for parsing the chunks, removing the size markers and assembling the request body. >From an email chain I found (http://www.magiccookie.com/bboard/do=list-containers/container=1748) there is a discussion on how JServ 1.0, doesn't support chunked encoding, but that it was being worked on. It looks indeed like some of the support for chunked encoding has been added. In jserv_apjv12.c the code has changed from 1.0 to 1.1 to call ap_setup_client_block() with REQUEST_CHUNKED_DECHUNK, instead of REQUEST_CHUNKED_ERROR. However the chunked support doesn't seem to work. What happens under JServ 1.1 is that the servlet can read the body of the HTTP request through the JServInputStream, but since the content length isn't set (i.e. it is -1), the input stream doesn't seem to know when the end of the request body is reached, and just hangs waiting for mod_jserv to send more data. My environment is: WinNT Apache 1.3.9 JServ 1.1 JDK 1.2.2 Does anyone have JServ working with requests coming in in chunked format? or have any suggestions? thanks, --Barry -- -------------------------------------------------------------- Please read the FAQ! <http://java.apache.org/faq/> To subscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives and Other: <http://java.apache.org/main/mail.html> Problems?: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
