Hi,
The symptom Rodrigo describes is usually associated with Netscape web
servers and IE4+ browsers and usually rears its head when new plug-ins and
CGIs are installed, because that's when you are testing and most likely to
notice the problem. It has to do with a bug in Netscape Enterprise Server.
NES incorrectly performs HTTP1.1 Keep Alive. There was no patch as of 6
months ago, but the workaround is to add this line to magnus.conf -
"KeepAliveTimeout 0". This will hurt performance, but its a quick and easy
fix.
People installing servlet engines on Netscape should be aware of this
problem and be assured that it has nothing to do with the servlet engine
they are using. I also encourage servlet engine vendors to add it to their
documentation. Otherwise people will blame the servlet engine and servlets
in general for the problem.
Hope that helps,
