I recall something like that about a year ago when using MSVC/MinGW
native Windows (i.e. excluding Cygwin) builds of luasockets and wget.
Downloads via IE did not exhibit the problem. I don't recall what the
issue was, whether it was the firewall or otherwise. Anywhere, here's
the test code I made at the time.
-- test code that tends to hang on some setups after downloading
approximately 1 MB.
-- (note: adding the pause tends to improve it)
require "socket"
local function pause() for i=1,1e6 do end end
local soc = socket.tcp()
soc:connect("mirrors.xmission.com", 80)
soc:send("GET /ubuntu-cd/jaunty/ubuntu-9.04-desktop-i386.iso
HTTP/1.1\nHOST: mirrors.xmission.com\n\n")
local count = 0
while 1 do
local data, msg = soc:receive(1000)
if not data then print('end', msg) break end
count = count + #data
print(count)
end
